Daniel Sturridge

[Bosnian Blue 2,471]

Any day of the week, my friend.

And it isn't a new opinion I have. I say so since... ferbruary, March ?

And ask yourself a question, if you doubt of my point. Would you rather play a man who has scored 13 goals in 19 games, since the end of January, or a striker who can't score anymore / a striker who doesn't have any more the eager to play / a striker who is average.

No, no I didn't doubt your point. On the contrary, I agree with you.

The problem is that Torres is a 50M signing, Drogba is a club legend and Anelka is still being considered as a useful player. That is why the only way for Danny to play is the wide position. He can adjust and improve and I'm sure he will.

Consistency and stability, he desperately needs that atm. This is a very important period of Danny's career and bashing the youngster won't do any good.

Why don't we play like this

Mata

Sturridge - Torres

Are you guys aware that Sturridge has only been a regular in the starting squad for less then a year, and that is including his time at Bolton. And he hasn't even played half of a season as a winger, and you guys already saying he can't make it there or he has not future at Chelsea. Really absurd.

Sturridge has done well this season, there are few wingers who has had a better season then him in the PL. His problem is consistency and decision making, and that is going to improve with experience. Once he gets more comfortable on the wing the game will slow down for him, which will lead to better decisions.

Mata

Sturridge - Torres

Well we actually do. Mata is all around the pitch, while Sturridge plays more as a second striker then as a winger

Don't know if anyone mentioned this, but I think Sturridge was suffering from another "Carlo" syndrome in the Arsenal game...

Only difference was this time the Italian manager he was trying to impress was Fabio Capello, to get a call-up to the England squad this month...

I think his performance was affected by it...

Sturridge has been in great form this season. One bad game on the wing and I see responses like:

His not good on the wing

1 footed

Not good enough for Chelsea

Get a grip ffs. How many goals and assists has he got for the season? Not too mention he missed the first three games of the season.

[francozola 2,040]

Also - how much proper first-team football has he had??? Hardly 8 or so months of it! And most of it was as a striker. A lot of the things which he is lacking right now is possible to learn over experience

[Waterfall 893]

He really needs to step up his game. He's missing too many chances.

[5354 204]

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

About time too. Capello finally sees the light.

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.
