Daniel Sturridge

[Cosmin 2,484]

That is great and all but hardly anyone is using that criteria on this thread. Including you here is your own quote:

You and others have filled this thread with so much idiocy about his so called attitude problem. There is hardly any real critique of Sturridge as a footballer on this thread, but much to do with him being "arrogant,""egomaniac," "he thinks he is too good," etc. These are all assumptions and not founded by any means, because no one here has been to a training session or know him personally to make so many critique of him on a personal level.

For me Sturridge is a great talent and has impressed in limited opportunity, but sadly Chelsea is not the club for him. He needs a AVB or Coyle type manager to get the best out of him. I think Rodgers can do that, and is good match for him. This also a good deal for us, we get 12m for a player with less then six months on his contract and btw we have barely used this season.

When said what I said about his attitude I was referring to the way he was treating his team mates ON THE FIELD. He wasted tons of opportunities because of his selfishness. I think I've said this before. There's my real critique of Sturridge as a footballer.

Happy now?

Oh yea ? Were you lurking by ?

Im ALWAYS lurking

Happy to sign him, 12m might be a bit steep but whatever we need someone, anyone other than Suarez up there.

Still, the evidence is that Chelsea (coaches and whoever the manager is) don't think Sturridge is good enough. We can either trust they have more information than we do (I tend to be in this group), or we can think they are wrong based on the little information we have.

Another piece of evidence we have is the very low price of the transfer; considering his age, status, nationality, he should be in the 20m+. Also, did any club, other than Liverpool consider a move for him? Isn't that strange?

Lol, Sturridge would never have gone for 20m+. Do you rate him that highly then?

That is like saying because Liverpool were interested in Suarez he's a bad player.

[YouNameIt 1,511]

Fuck Chelsea for treating Danny like they have, putting all their faith in Torres and finally selling him.

And i seriousley dont give a fucking crap if danny was the biggest asshole in the world, had the worst attitude and whatnot (which he wasnt), he still would have done at least twice as good as Torres upfront.

Pure fucking madness.

never got a proper chance.

So you are saying Carroll is more skillful and more English than Sturridge? How much was Carroll, 25m?

It's all about the number of top clubs and the available national pool, which is quite limited for English clubs.

Never really liked his attitude and his finishing was just ok. I can almost guarantee he will score against us a number of times though. It always happens.

Oh well, Good luck warming the bench at liverpool. The way Suarez is playing, you can pretty much say he just swapped London for Liverpool and Blue for Red. Thats all. He will never be considered as a player to spearhead an attack.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

We should retire the #23 shirt! Besides, Danny won't "pass" it on to another player

[flyll 5]

Hope he does well,really good player !

[killer1257 3,282]

He scored now his first goal for Liverpool.I miss him .

[Rambo 1,729]

glad to hear, I hope he proves how idiotic our board can be.

[Ankit 3,176]

He scored a goal and then missed an easy one on one with the goalkeeper!! So things were back to normal.

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

Who cares if he Scored? We got DEMBA BA!

[The only place to be 11,313]

glad to hear, I hope he proves how idiotic our board can be.

Why would you want that?

You realise the guy we bought to replace him scored twice yesterday against Premier League opposition?

[Corner 456]

I hate that stupid dance he does.

[Rambo 1,729]

I do, and I'm not saying Ba was not a good buy. I just thought Sturridge could've been given a proper chance. He was mismanaged through the entire season and the board showed no faith in him whatsoever.

a 23 year old, really good prospect starts just 2 matches and a couple other subs as a 2nd striker for half a season while another player who was underperforming was continued to be given time, so let this be a lesson to our board never to do that again and to show some trust in our youngsters.
