My guess is that Sturridge will come on loan the last day of the window

 

 

And be injured the day after, for the rest of the season, after picking up a nasty injury during his first training session...

I'm not saying we want or need him - I'm just stating that he knows where the back of the net is unlike our options. Ridiculously injury prone but one of the best finishers in the league when fit.

Would miss 70% of games but still end up our top scorer though

Hope not, and won't happen anyway.

 

Can't stand him. He's lost pace and hasn't even performed well for a couple of years now, his wages are huge and he's never played in a struggling team. There's good reason City and Chelsea ditched him. Doesn't matter how important a goal is, his first thought always seems to be his brand and that fcking stupid dance.

 

He'll go abroad and end up at West Ham on about 200k a week at some point.

 

He played for Bolton in 2010/11 and was instrumental in keeping them up, scoring 8 goals in 12 games.

Less productive lol.

Never could decide if we dodged a bullet by not getting him, or if we would have been the right environment for him to blossom.

Under Puel it was probably unlikley. Under MP it would never happen.

Why not just get Berahino? Younger, fitter, less productive.

 

He's gone on a worse scoring-blank than long! I think his last goal came at the start of 2016 for WBA! An example of a player who let it all go to his head.

Yeah that's what I was getting at.

 

Isn't that a Radiohead lyric ?

 

Glad someone got it.

Reports suggesting that he's off to WBA on loan until the end of the season. I can't help but feel that this is another target missed.

 

We only sign strikers who miss targets.

cracking signing for them.

We already have one injury-prone striker, not sure we really need another one
how many games do you think sturridge will play in during what is left of the season?

Knowing our luck he will stay fit and score the winner on Saturday with a superb assist by Jrod, not that I’m feeling negative you understand.

 

My mood might change if we get Promes.

Except for the loss of dressing room harmony. Very glad we’ve dodged this bullet.
Those words could come back to haunt you. It may not work out, but I'm certainly not "very glad" that a rival has strengthened. If he stays fit he could easily score the goals to keep them up.

He will stay fit for about three weeks, long enough to play against us twice. I can just see the asshole doing that bloody stupid wavey arm dance celebration thing when he scores against us !

If.... but knowing our luck (and the chance of an England World Cup call up) he’ll bit fit for the rest of the season

Of course it's a risk, that's why he has gone to West brom in the first place. It's not something to be pleased about though.

Didn’t say I was pleased. Like I say the walking sick note will stay fit until there’s no chance of an England call up. Then boom hello physio table.

Very glad is virtually the same as pleased. They only need him to stay fit enough to score a few crucial goals and keep them up. It's entirely possible and he's a better class of striker than we have if he stays fit.

He is not divisive. So many seem to judge him on his celebration but he seems a decent bloke if you took the time to read any interviews,

 

Wish we got him.

Don't think that's right - his absences from 1st team duties were often down to Klopp not selecting him. Would he be any more injury prone than Austin? I don't think so. Given our situation, I would have welcomed him here - he's got class and he's clinical.

I think Pardew will keep them up as JRod/Sturridge will do the business. We, on the other hand, have bought a striker who does not know the PL and has very little time to get up to speed. A big gamble by Saints.

Saints have new striker that could turn out to be just what we need and also have one if the best finishers coming back from injury in February in Charlie Austin. We will be fine.

Well put and your probably not too far from the truth.Why put himself in harms way any further when the world cup calling is over?,back to easy street for him and earn all the dosh from the comfort of the treatment room.
