Daniel Sturridge-2015

[Iceman]

He's been hogging the ball since he came back. Fucker needs to pass it more. Him and Sterling both. Just keep it simple until we have a couple of goals notched up and then you can do all that goal of the season stuff. I am disappointed that he hasn't matured more during his time out through injury. You would have thought that some time to watch and reflect would have given him a better attitude than he's displaying of late.

That's why I don't think he's world class. He's a very good finisher but selfish and doesn't release the ball early enough in promising positions.  Suarez got as much joy out of setting up a team-mate as he did scoring himself.  I don't get the same impression with Sturridge. 

 

He needs to become a more rounded player, especially as he's the type where once injuries rob him of his explosive pace his threat lessens considerably.

He's obviously shit, the injury has fucked him. How fucking dare he have us all counting the days down until his return & then have the temerity to have a a shit game or three. Just who the fuck does he think he is? If I was him I'd fuck off coz our fan base are fucking whoppers.

[Dundalis]

I was far more annoyed at how often Sterling lost the ball. For a guy whom has developed a reputation is a "strong" player despite his size, he gets brushed off the ball far too easily. Sturridge kept the ball better, and was at least able to win some free kicks.

Exactly. There are some proper mentals on here. Sell him? Fucking hell. Calling him a prick and a cunt?

 

He's unfit and mentally rusty. He also had fuck all service and no movement when he had the ball.

He was very poor last night, there's no getting away from it.

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

Yeah, he was. Though that's a bit different from calling him a prick and a cunt who needs to be sold, isn't it.

[billypilgrimnz]

First they came for Balotelli, but I didn't speak up, because I don't like Balotelli

Then they came for Lovren, but I didn't speak up, because I don't like Lovren

Finally, they came for Sturridge.......

[skend04]

Don't think there'll ever be a time when he doesn't hold on to the ball too long. You just have to take the rough with the goalscoring ability. But FFS get your head up Sturridge you fucking twat!

Yeah, but Lovren and Balotelli actually do need to be sold.

[billypilgrimnz]

Yeah, but Lovren and Balotelli actually do need to be sold.

 

I'm talking about calling current LFC players cunts. No need for it, no matter who the player is.

[Major Tom]

I agree.

[Mark M]

He was shite last night along with most of the others that played.

He's back from being out from 5 months and is getting his fitness levels back.

He's also got one of the best goals to games stats of any player from our history.

 

And if we have a chance against City to win the match and had a choice of who it falls to. I'm going with Sturridge all day long.

[Paulie Dangerously]

He's just not sharp after so much time out. Not snapping the shot when he should. It'll come.

I'm not so sure that explosive pace will return as much as before. He's looked slow since he's come back, he gets beyond the defenders and doesn't seem capable of getting away. If it was just sharpness he'd have shown it at least a few times since he's been back then slowed down more as the games gone on due to fatigue.

 

He's still a great finisher though given half a chance, he just needs to hit it earlier than he is. Something just doesn't seem right with him at the moment.

[KevieG]

Its almost as if he needs Luis around to give him a bollocking once every 30 mins. Will anyone else do it?

 

Pass the ball Daniel.

[Bjornebye]

Any fucking need for this thread or most of the comments in it? Are we becoming fucking man City all of a sudden?

 

Dickheads

 

Fickle fucking daytripping cunts

[Section_31]

He needs a Karl Heinz Riedle, and that's not a euphemism.

[Grinch]

I'm more concerned about how woeful Sterling looks, who doesn't have the excuse of just coming back from a lengthy injury.

 

Anyone expecting a footballer to hit the ground running after that amount of time out, hasn't been following the sport for very long.

 

We've just got to hope his touch, sharpness etc all returns in time.

I sort of agree with you.............but Glen Johnson is a cunt. As was Downing whilst at us.

[Torvald Utne]

I'm sure I remember a period like this when he was playing with Suarez, he was being very greedy and not scoring, then he started being less selfish and the goals started flowing for them both

[Trumo]

When Balotelli played him in, he had the time and space to take a touch and pick out the far corner, but his lack of sharpness meant he instead held onto the ball too long and ended up twisting and turning to get an effort in on goal which was saved by the keeper. Against Dortmund in pre-season - while it wasn't exactly identical in position to the Besiktas chance - he took a touch and shot before the goalkeeper had a chance to set himself. I'm hoping he gets that sharpness back soon because he will look far more clinical as a result.

 

[Original202]

I hope this is just an "injury" to get him away from England again rather than anything real

When have we ever been that clever?

[Jay86]

I'd rather him play to be honest, a few more games to play before he joins back up with us. A few more games to get rid of the potential rustiness.
