FFS http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/35046866 Daniel Sturridge: Liverpool striker out for weeks with new injury Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge will be out for several weeks after suffering a hamstring injury during Sunday's defeat by Newcastle. He felt a problem after coming on as a second-half substitute at St James' Park and a scan showed a strain. It is the latest in a long line of injury absences for the 26-year-old, who had just returned to action after knee and foot problems. Sturridge has made six appearances so far this season, scoring four goals. Having scored 28 times for Liverpool and England in 2013-14, he was restricted to just 18 appearances last season because of thigh, calf and hip injuries.
I've been defending the guy because when he plays he scores. Even my patience is running thin though. Imagine though that we had a strong enough strike force that we could play Sturridge as and when. We need another goalscorer regardless. I'm not sold of Benteke. As an option he's okay but he's not a starter in our first 11 imo.
Wonder if Studge's nose lights up if you accidentally touch the sides when you try to remove his charley-horse?
Feels a slight twinge, asks for a scan, results show no tear, but he's still out for weeks.... I'm convinced this fella is a complete hypochondriac in the Saha envelope. Oh well.....at least he'll be able to nip over to the States for some Chrimbo 'treatment'.
****ing ridiculous. How the **** did this guy even make it out of infancy, he's so made out of crisps that his mum and dad burping him should have done for him ?!
