I keep hearing about Sturridge having the better technique, ability to change a game, that moment of magic etc etc
but he just isnt showing it when he gets a chance AND he's out for three quarters of the season.
Yet every time I see Divvy play he gives absolutely everything, causes problems and more often than not gets goals,
he's not perfect, he's a bit up and down as young players tend to be but I would much rather see him in the starting lineup than Sturridge. And he seems relatively normal when it comes to injuries and recovery.
For someone with such great technique Studge gives the ball away an awful lot, takes too many touches, pulls step overs when theres no need time after time after time, often looks on his heels, slows things down. If he was scoring for fun when he gets a start it wouldnt be so bad, you could put up with him being injured for huge parts of the season, but he doesn't. Incredibly frustrating player.
With Divvy you know what you'll get, a big battering ram with decent pace, decent technique and a solid finisher and someone whos only going to get better AND give you more than 12 games a season.
Absolute no brainer, I honestly don't know how its still a discussion.
