Back In For Sturridge

Was there also a story about Mancini asking him why he left City in the first place?

Well at 20m, if we take off the 6.5m we got + the 20% we get back? that will work out around 11m?

Great signing for 11m.

Do we need him? Well we are lacking in pace and width but he will want to play every game as a striker so doesn't really help us or himself.
 
We dont need Sturridge, I rated him highly when he was playing for us, and I think he would struggle in the front line??? maybe maybe not................

though clicking the link the source is the Daily Star, not caught offside.

Either way, Sturridge is too selfish and not good enough to play for us. Would replace AJ as English contingent.
 
No for the simple reason he wants to play centre forward when we have very good centre forwards already and one out on loan (actually two but Adebayor is as good as gone). Sturridge as a wide player is good (even if too greedy) but he's unhappy in that role and that's the entire reason for him being linked with a move away. I wouldn't mind seeing Sturridge back as he's one of our own but it'd have to be as a wide man and even then there are better on the continent we could go for.
 
His form for Bolton (and early this season for Chelsea) have dropped a bit, sure hes a great talent but I think at the moment with Guidetti coming back we will be ok with the striker situation.

If we lost Balo in the summer then we should go back for him but as it stands I think we have enough cover.
 
So let me get this straight-

2009- wants a pay rise, doesn't get it and moves to Chelsea.

2012-wants a pay rise, doesn't get it and moves back to City

Repeat for the rest of his career.

Not a chance it'll happen, no logic on either side. Think he's a fantastic player though
