No problem, man.

It likely is possible to house "time to get rid" in a still fairly respectful way, but those posting things with those sorts of words tend to put a lot of other baggage in with it, about the veracity of his injury issues and such. Really no need for that; professional footballers put a hell of a lot of work in early doors to get to where they are - very few just choose one day to piss it all away for nothing.

I've always been averse to the use of nicknames like 'sicknote' too, because they imply faking it to get out of something. 'Jack Wheelchair' is darkly funny though, pretty witty, but it also doesn't carry that same cynical suggestion about the player's character.

Errrr... why do you think?

We treat our current players with respect here, and the majority of our ex-players, those who don't badly let themselves and us down.

I'm not really arsed if you disagree like, you're basically arguing against me standing up for one of our own players against suggestions that he consciously pretends his injuries are worse than they are (and thus deliberately throws away his career at the top level of football, as you do), and 'good riddance' sentiments. I'd rather see it my way than yours.

I'm not arguing.

I think you need to relax.

Sturridge doesn't need someone on an internet forum to stand up for him.

I think you need to stop starting your posts at someone with "Errrr. Why?" if you don't want to argue.  ::)

I'm relaxed enough, ta.

I'll say whatever I want to say, and defend whoever I want to.

Haven't read any of this thread so just passing by.

I think it's one of the most disrespectful comments to be made about a player, for me it shows little regard for them as an actual person... plenty of negative connotations with it.

It could make a lot of difference. He is still feared by many defrnces so even if he is playing 15 minutes it can have an impact. Whilst he wont work defences too hard, no one is leaving him free and he certainly knows which positions to take up into the box.

For me the biggest difference is looking at the subs bench before the game and getting a little surge of optimism when I see the name "Sturridge", rather than seeing a name like "Brewster" and wondering if there was a typo.

No offense to Brewster, like... (but who is he anyway?)

Brewster is a big talent, who has made it into the under 23's this season. He is 17 at the moment, but Klopp noticed him on his first day as manager playing in the under 18's. He mentioned him to a journalist saying that he was a huge talent. Loads of teams were trying to get him on loan earlier on, but Klopp wants the young players kept together and playing. His progress has been impressive this season, while his talent is raw his attitude is excellent. He also has the pace and ability to trouble people. Had an excellent game the other night against City. He had been training with the first team recently, and he obviously impressed Klopp enough, to be put on the bench. But he's a name worth keeping an eye on.

If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

I felt so much calmer when it was him walking about up front.  Felt we should've kept him at Lallana on together, they could've kept the ball between themselves all night.

Good cameo and created an excellent chance for himself. Was screaming at him to square it to Gini on the counter right at the death, but it also made sense to invite pressure and take a foul. Took balls, mind, cause they could've had another chance had he lost the ball there, but well done to him.

Yep, stuff just tends to happen when he's on the pitch. We are creating nothing at the moment but when he's come on v Stoke and today stuff just starts happening!

He came on with 10 minutes to go with Watford high up the pitch looking for a goal. So of course he's going to get opportunities. Origi put in a shift and a half.

Let's see if Sturridge is fit enough to play a full game.

Origi improved but he seemed a bit quiet in the first half.

Sturridge looks like he lost nothing while being away. Hard to say that's true, but he did a lot for his shot that drew a top drawer save

I expect for him to score the winner against West Ham, and then command a big transfer fee from them in the summer.

Haven't seen that type of run for a while in our team- the solo effort, goalwards- right through the middle(not going wide or any of that sort of thing) and taking on central defenders one-by-one. Sturridge is just one of a kind in our team. The finish was a bit "off" but that's expected of a player who has seen little gametime. Good enough save by Gomes as well.

I said to my mate at start of the game, "who is that Sturridge chap on the bench today?"

He replied saying "its probably Dean Sturridge, would probably get more minutes out of him!!"

Made me laugh!

But in all seriousness, you see the difference he makes (Danny, not Dean), if only........blah blah blah, think everyone knows the end of that sentence......

He's always going to have that him in him as he is a natural goalscorer. He's just made of glass which is the problem

Nope not like that. He seemed pretty quick when he did it too. Its been well documented that his pace is gone. So it was nice to see.
