Man City demand £10M compo from Chelsea for Sturridge

[the wes 7,212]

Manchester City have slapped a £10 million price-tag on new Chelsea signing Danny Sturridge.

The News of the World says City go head-to-head with Chelsea at a transfer tribunal later this month over Sturridge's controversial departure.

Sturridge, who was 20 on Tuesday, quit Eastlands at the end of last season after snubbing several lucrative contract offers.

Instead, he signed a four-year deal with Chelsea worth £65,000 a week.

And City base their claim on his enormous salary.

Are we seriously paying him £65,000? :huh:

[Ray. 217]

He'll need to prove himself on the pitch for this amount of money, if it's true. It does seem a tad too expensive.

he took a pay cut to come here city wouldnt be paying him more than 65000

£10,000,000? Dream on.

[Alee. 182]

Fuck you Man Citeh, they should get a fucking life-time ban on transfers.

[Drogba11CFC 108]

Like the greedy fuckers need it...

[BlueLion. 21,491]

We'll have to demand £80,000,000 in compensation for them being cunts all the time.

[Kez 2,727]

And people wonder why we feel like we are victimised all the time?

[ZanSnake 1,211]

Wait, because Sturridge rejected them and joined us when he was OUT OF CONTRACT. They want a massive sum of money, which they DON'T need for compensation. I thought that was judged by FIFA or something. Man Citeh deffinately chose the right fucking time, try and kick the team down before they have an even chance to get back up.

[Endrit 39]

A court is going to decide how much we are going to pay them, my bet is around 5£ million.

[Rambo 1,729]
