Regarding Sturridge I believe that we should look at Arsenal. They had Van Persie, very talented but had injury issues and finally it paid of that season where he was captain. That he left them for United is of course ironic.
I think even Walcott, Wilshire etc have also had their problems.
I think we should trust Klopp to do the right thing.

Then they sold him and won the league for United.

I fail to see the irony in his move, but this is an excellent example. It did pay off for Arsenal, and luckily for us I don't get the impression that Sturridge would throw it all back in our face when he does recover. Klopp has said its not that serious and was likely just a case of him adapting to the intensity of our training now.

I think people are overlooking into Sturbridge matter. There is no list of suitors outside waiting to sign DS. Given the club makes him available and the price we slap on him, I highly doubt there would be even one interested parties in England.
Chelsea won't come near another Torres Debacle
The last thing city want is another Aguero in the sidelines.
Arsenal will not buy him for the money we command.
We wouldn't sell to UTD.
I am not sure how many games would he play this season, but if any player is put of action, it becomes immensely difficult to find a buyer.

Thats probably your best post ever Harry. But you've heard about Spain and Italy right?
27 Nov 2015 21:33:09
I actually think Studge would suit a slower paced game, such as italy's or spain's. Less running, higher lines, and generally slower defenders. I wouldn't rule it above a foreign club asking his availability and fitness.

There is no money in Italy, Certainly big money.
Barcelona do not need a mainstream striker for at least another 2-3 years. Real is the only option but I highly doubt they would come anywhere near a player who has missed 71 games in 4 years.

how much do you think studge would fetch? sometimes you have to cut your losses harry. Also to say there's no money in Italy is a bit unfair. there are some well run clubs.
Real ''is the only option'', what makes you say that? how much do you think we would demand?

Bob
We will slap close to 40 mill pounds without any hesitation.
He is young and has excellent goal to game ratio.
No well run football clubs in Italy would come anywhere near him for that amount including Juventus.
Tell me how many clubs in Spain would buy a player for that amount?
28 Nov 2015 12:06:56
ok EG if you say so.
No club would go near him for that amount I agree, but we would be stupid to ask for such a high number he's had 1 good season, and been injured for the other 2. I think you plucked £40 million out of thin air personally.
