Daniel Sturridge

[captainfog]

Hodgson has said he's got a slight tear. LFC said nothing yet but there are "fears" he's out for a month.

Ffs we can't catch a break, can we.

[Fosterbloke]

Hopefully this means that Sterling will go back up front.

[Reece]

[Leyton388]

You knew this would happen. Genius by the club not buyiing another striker in January. **** for brain's

[Alex]

Sterling moves back up top.

Its ****, but it makes Brendans life easier IMO. Stops him having to find a way to fit everyone in.

Sturridge should go away and spend time working on stopping these injuries. Wrap him in cotton wool and give him the best chance possible of smashing teams apart next year.

[Slinky Skills]

I ****ing knew this would happen.

What about Dzeko, would anyone fancy us making a move for him and would he come to us?

Would get us goals at least and he's very rarely injured.

[Pablo]

We could really do with Ibe back now. It's a bit **** being so reliant on a 20 year old Sterling and 19 year old Ibe who was on loan until January

Nah, he's ok but he'd be another centre forward just not suited to Rodgers system.

If you think Balo's work rate is bad, I'd be surprised that you'd suggest Dzeko.

[Rich]

I like Dzeko but his wages will be astronomic.

[McDermotX]

Made of glass. Need two top drawer strikers in the summer.

FSG, from an accounting point of view, must be seething at the return on a weekly basis and it won't be cheap to have other options in play next season.
We'll add this to the pile of things unravelling this season.


So, Zaf gets his job back ?

What accounting point of view?

[McDermotX]

What accounting point of view?

Near top earner wages out/limitation on wage spend elsewhere/probable insurance premium hike etc

Oh yes, and add in drop in potential transfer value if we ever decided to get rid.

Its not hard to see factors like this being a cause for concern at some levels. Its not exactly scaremongering to suggest, from a business point of view, they may be balancing the pros and cons. Good old value for money logic.

You really think so?

[frank the tank]

looks like Sturridge could be the new Michael Owen.....not the awesome 18 year old version but the crocked to **** 27 year old version....

We have Origi coming in the summer.....for me we need to supplement that with someone else like Vietto as well. I think Brendan intends to eventually go back to a 4-3-3 formation with 3 wide guys in the front 3 - these could be Ibe, Sterling, Markovic.....with Lallana and Coutinho also possibles (although hopefully Coutinho will end up in the middle as the most attacking central midfielder - our Iniesta so to speak)...

If we got someone like Vietto or Lacazette, then they could play in a wide role as well as through the middle - just like Origi can.
