Daniel Sturridge

[BlueLion. 21,491]

He should really take his chances. The game against Blackburn, should had done better. Now Welbeck is performing so much better than him.

Could actually have ten goals this season already.

That will come with age and experience, however.

at the moment he is probably the best of our strikers.. Welbeck made a great start but seems to have gone backwards lately.

Congrats, it's been coming!

Looking forward to see how Sturridge is used in the England set-up should be interesting

They will probably play him on the wing and that will frustrate me.

[Krypt 241]

Yeah i can see that happening seeing as they will play Zamora down the middle.

Capello has now said that he'll start on the bench

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Now that'll knock his confidence.

[Term-X 7,891]

I knew it was too good to be true.

Having said that.. maybe this would be a more suitable debut. Especially if we get off to a slow start and he has a positive influence when introduced, his impact would be highlighted even more so.

Although it would be just typical if Capello brings him on in the 80th minute, smh.

DANIEL STURRIDGE CALL IS COSTLY FOR CHELSEA

DANIEL STURRIDGE will make his England debut against Sweden tomorrow, leaving Chelsea a £1million bill.

Fabio Capello’s confirmation the striker will play means Chelsea owe Manchester City an extra £1m following his controversial 2009 move.

They were ordered by a tribunal to pay £3.5m for Sturridge, now 22, and a further £3m based on future appearances.

City will not bank all of the cash, as Coventry also had a 10 per cent sell-on clause.

England goalkeeping coach Ray Clemence missed the Spain game because he was unwell

Not really a bid deal. His worth is almost £20million+ now, because of the current market of English players

Capello has now said that he'll start on the bench

Proof this guy hasn't got a clue at all.

[Amblève. 4,995]

Proof this guy hasn't got a clue at all.

And he always gives us proof of that...

EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea fan's 'racist slur' on Sturridge to be investigated by club

Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge, who will make his England debut as a substitute against Sweden at Wembley, has been the target of alleged racist abuse from his own club’s fans.

An investigation has been launched at Stamford Bridge following the complaint from a Chelsea executive club member that a fellow wealthy supporter had loudly called Sturridge a ‘monkey’ during the Champions League game away at Belgian club Genk two weeks ago.

The inquiry is in addition to Chelsea’s joint probe with the police and the Genk football authorities to identify the travelling fans at the same match who were chanting ‘Anton Ferdinand, you know what you are’.

This was in moronic support of the alleged racist foul language from Chelsea captain John Terry, supposedly directed at QPR’s Ferdinand, that the Metropolitan Police are investigating.

The Sturridge abuse came from the €100-a-seat section at the top of the main stand reserved for Chelsea’s 300-strong group of well-heeled executive club members and Samsung sponsors that included Martin Broughton, chairman of British Airways, and computer multi-millionaire Peter Harrison.

One of the Chelsea fans sitting in that exclusive area is alleged to have shouted: ‘They are bringing on the monkeys’ as striker Sturridge, 22, prepared to come on in the second half.

This so disgusted a Chelsea fan sitting nearby, who regularly travels abroad supporting the club, that he sent an email to chief executive Ron Gourlay protesting about the racist invective aimed at Sturridge from a well-dressed, middle-aged man, who also joined in the unacceptable Ferdinand chants.

A Chelsea spokesman said: ‘We have had a new complaint from a fan that we are taking very seriously indeed. We are carrying out an immediate investigation led by our head of security that is likely to involve the police as well. We will not tolerate any form of racism and have encouraged our supporters to help identify those responsible and we will track them down.’

No.. Fucking.. Way.

[Kez 2,727]

Absolutely DISGUSTING. Racist abuse is bad enough in itself but from your own fans is just disgusting.

[termninja 5,290]

That's a fucking disgrace! And our IDIOTIC board who let the media get their hands on this!

Fucking hell...ya know who's a monkey!? Ron Gourlay!

[LDN Blue 7,903]

Unbelievable. After all the JT fiasco and now this?! Do some fans actually want to see this club in the negative eye all the time?

[Kieran. 6,317]

Shameful.

I remember Drogba yelling at one of our fans for calling Kalou a wog last year.

[Madmax 9,219]

Fuck's sake. We have some absolute cunts 'following' the team these days.
