Daniel Sturridge

I was just stating something, chill.

Some bad finishing from his recently, but his movement is great especially off the ball. Always in dangerous positions. Not doing himself justice with those misses if he wants to get a chance as a striker.

Not to sound so negative, but if he keeps this up, he may not be heading to Ukraine/Poland this summer.

Don't worry; a lot of time till june. Relax mate, and watch the finish @0:47

What's with the Sturridge negativity all of a sudden anyway?

Seems like you can't criticize any player not named, Torres, Bosingwa, Kalou, Malouda or Mikel on this site.

When he's playing well everyone hops on his bandwagon and talk about how great he is, and when he isn't he will (and rightly should) be criticized.

Yes he's missed a few recently but he keeps going for it and he's not hiding. He'll find the net again very soon, i think he could get a couple against Napoli.

he is just in "a bad moment" and we know how long they can be....

You know it's impossible to compare theese two? Lets hope he will break this against Stoke.

Read my explanation. You took it out of context.

[Sheva. 5,373]

I understand your explanation, it's just this part: "what's with the negativity all of a sudden?"

He's not been at his best for a while, has scored just one goal since December, and to make matters worse, he's now missing wide open chances like Torres.

Fair enough, I misspoke in that phrase.

[Badboy 1,526]

This might actually bring him down to earth and neutralize his EGO ?

[laura90 556]

Torres is terrified of scoring. He would rather do anything else.

Sturridge is obsessed with scoring. He rather wouldn't do anything else.

Misses like that are common in both cases.

Most successful strikers have big ego's From Danny's last interview he seemed pretty down to earth.

How good is it that we've got this lad really?, i am just going over when we first got him, so cheap and he turns out so good.

Can anyone remember Sturridge playing bad once this season?, and i mean 'bad', i can't really remember one, i've seen some where he has hardly had the ball, but our midfield can be blamed for that. But when he has the ball he usually produces so much quality, from a young lad who is a striker you would never imagine how good he is at dribbling and passing.

He's actually a really good creative player, has made some fantastic passes this season, remember that pass to Lampard against Bolton?, remember that pass to Drogba against Laverkusen, he came on against Liverpool and completely changed the game and atmosphere, he was just a spark and he got placed in midfield, his passing was quality, and he went on to equalise, what a quality player we have.

He's also very underrated in my opinion, but that's a good thing, because when they are overrated, it never seems to benefit them. Just so happy we've got people like Sturridge, in these dark times at Chelsea.

Also on another note something Badboy said about him not being fully matured, well that's spot on. I hope he can improve his game, he needs a better work rate and cut out the greedyness, we could of had so many goals if he decided to square the ball instead of going for the shot, Newcastle was a huge example, that game he could of had about 3-4 assists at least.

[Badboy 1,526]

@Sloth Sturridge was a steal lol and that is why Mancini feels hard done by despite having the players he has got in his squad. I think Sturridge's dribbling has improved a lot since he arrived back from Bolton.

[zolayes 14,489]

Roma got a steal with Borini

Roma got a steal with Borini

While I agree Borini might have been a good option for us, I don't see how he could have thrived with Torres, Drogba, Lukaku, Sturridge competing for a spot. Real shame we couldn't hold onto him but the move away was the best option for his career.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

I agree. While Borini is proving to be a great player. I doubt he would have made any impact here.
