    ... would you want him at your club?

    Now I doubt he would ever consider coming to little old Leicester City anyway, but I would have to say that personally I wouldn't want him and think that any club paying substantial money for him will inevitably suffer financially ..

    I think he is an excellent footballer and indeed was advocating us trying to get him when i first saw him at Man City hardly getting a look in ... but I think a player constantly out injured like he is causes too much disruption to a team ... there is great expectation when ever primed tor return but it then ruins the momentum of a team when in next to no time he is out again ... perhaps the very richest clubs can afford that sort of luxury but I'd much rather have a nasty little terrier like our own Jamie Vardy who will only be out injured if his limbs are actually hanging off ... thoughts?

    I think Sturridge is a top striker. But, like Wheelchair Wilshire, he's a crock...

    Somebody might take a punt on him at Charlie Austin money, but otherwise, he's a liability.

  3. He's another Rosicksky (spelling), the Arsenal sick-note.

    I heard a scary stat about him. Apparently, Arsenal only kept him on because he's Petr Cech's mate, despite the fact that the crocked bastard has played only 19 games in his entire Arsenal career!

    I think that you'd have to assess how bad his injuries are and how likely they are to reoccur.
    He's a very good player in the right system, but Klopp's comments seem to suggest that he cries off a lot.
    If that's true, then he's simply not worth the money, hassle and possible dressing room issues.

    Is there an underlying reason why Chelsea and City both got shot of him?
    If not, then there could be a bargain there for the right club.
    Who's most likely to take that risk?

    He's a top player and I'd like us to keep him. Yes we have to replace him but if he wants to stay and fight for a place then fine.

    He would fit right in at Arsenal*.


    *when I say fit in he of course would be unfit due to injury and of course we can never have enough ****ing sick notes at Arsenal
