True but Sturridge had also played in the Premier League with us. Solanke played just 5 games in PL2 last year, scoring twice, the year before that he scored 7 in 25 in the Eredivisie. Don't understand the move from the players perspective.
Although he might not be trusted to play in Liverpool's big games, he will more than likely be given a few appearances as he is still head and shoulders above Liverpool's Academy strikers imho.
