Daniel Sturridge

He's great as winger especially when he uses his right foot, problem is he don't want to play there even though he has no real competition in that position for club and country.
 
He played winger against us and was the only played to embarrass Clichy last season, skinned him in the attack that led to their goal.
 
I don't think he's as great as a winger & I fully understand why he's not interested in playing there. Defensive responsibilties, restriction of movement to one side of the pitch, playing wide means he has to play on the touchline outside the box.
Defenders usher him wider, he's not really a crosser of the ball

It just completely inhibits his game, to where people for instance think he can't pass.

Sturridge is great in the box, he loves to play on the channels to use his pace, but, crucially doesn't want to be restricted there. Obviously down the middle as well on the shoulders of the defender he uses his electric pace to great effect on the counter when he is central.
He drops deep & finds teammates well, he likes to slow dribble across the park
His game just becomes so much more 3D when played as a striker.
 
He can do one.

Greedy and not good enough to justify it. He's also a one trick pony, watch him do that little stepover, cut and shot over and over.
 
His only position for me should be a centre forward. He is capable on the wing but i dont think he has the intelligence or the awareness of his teammates to play there, his only thought is to cut inside and shoot.

He is a striker who is greedy for goals, so thats where he should play. he'd score goals for fun with good service.

I think you'll find noone has a bigger ego than Mario. It's just impossible. It defies logic.

That's garbage. That's like saying Robben isn't intelligent or aware because he goes for glory.
He's got the hunger for goals, great intelligence & great awareness, but, it's understandable that a hunger to score & confidence is something that supersedes awareness of others when it comes to decision making. If you're analysis was correct then he wouldn't be capable of all of those passes in the passing composite of that highlight package I posted.

Also you will do well to remember before Sturridge got dropped under Di Matteo the only player that assisted more goals for Chelsea was Juan Mata.

Nevertheless playing wider only feeds to a one-dimensional game. He has to wait for the ball to come to him often as a wide player, whereas when you're in the middle you're in the thick of it & you can chase the action more. Playing wider you get the ball less, you can command the ball less & so when he does get it, he's going to want to do as much as he can with it.

Playing as a left footer on the right isn't a position where the player is made to feed others, it's usually so they can cut inside & shoot. I think w/ Studge he still wanted to go all the way to the line too often & take on everyone such is his confidence.

RDM is our manager, which again knocks his chances of staying, he always said he'd love to go to Spain, but, a club like Madrid might play him wider & he's stipulated he will definitely play centrally next season.

Should be a great season for Studge next year. Goals galore.

Chelsea wants Moses, which could very well spell the end for Sturridge.
 
I would take Sturridge back simply because he is a local product, might be very raw but potential is there and when he does become world class whether in city or not It will be a point of pride especially for followers of our youth system like I am.

Now I'm not Sturridge's greatest fan, but would any sane man honestly push him out for Victor Moses?

Only at Chelski "making footballs most questionable decisions since 03"
