So what would you do with Sturridge?

Many of our lot want to sell him "while he has value" and to "free up the wage bill". I tend to not like thinking of our set up in terms of an accountant, and as a player, Sturridge is clearly boss when available.

But he's only available about half the time, that's the conundrum. If he could be a reliable starter we could have a front three of him on the right, Firmino and Mane.

He's clearly too good for a mid-table team. My fear is that he goes to say, Chelsea or Arsenal, and is available enough to be in the rotation and score some good goals for them. I wouldn't sell unless he clearly wants to go, but that said, Klopp doesn't really seem into him. Kind of like how Mourinho didn't really want Mata at Chelsea.

My problem with Sturridge is I dont think he is committed, if reports are right he wont play unless he is 100% fit and he's prone to sulking..

He has ability, but is he available enough and can you count on him when you are up against it?

For me I would sell.
 
Time for Jimmy to step up to the plate ala Stevie me and fuck up their CL chances.
 
Great player on his day but not sure if he's just precious or he genuinely has some sort of depression or something. Gotta get rid of that shit celebration though, I don't think he realises what a dickhead he looks

I am a Liverpool fans but the problem is exactly that he isnt available even half the time. No top team would have him because although on his day he is a good fooking player the problem is when he isnt playing and he is injured anc you need a recognised striker.

Even having him on an appearance only contract say 100k per appearance is still eating at your wage budget at least ours at LFC. I would love nothing more to have sturridge on that type of contract but it isn't going going to happen because it is still a lot of money we can't afford.

Thd sad thing is is that as much as I like sturridge I don't think we should be all over a sudden glossing over the fact he hasnt played in weeks and has ultimately cost the team more than what he has contributed.
