Brains Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 ?10 million rising to a maximum of ?15 million based on goals scored and England caps. He hasnt spent enough time at the club for us to be even discussing talks of a ?15m+ deal. He scored a few goals for us in the latter part of the season, but so did Elmander at the start of the season and we were cursing spending ?9m on him. I am yet to meet a City fan that regrets the sale of Sturridge and Chelsea are still in the market place for a new striker even with their current squad, so what does that say. A 12 month loan, with a view to a permanent deal at the end of it is by far the better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Frandsen08 Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 drogba staying, lukaku on his way to chelsea and rumours of eto'o going as well. cant see sturridge being happy to stay with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzo gambaro Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 31pts from 24 games = 1.29 ie only marginally less than the 1.33 with Sturridge 34 goals in 24 games = 1.42 goals just less than the 1.5 since he came. ie he came, Elamnder got moved. Elmander stopped scoring and Sturridge merely replaced those goals. Yet Elmander contributed more to the team ethic IMO. Aye, but we were without him in 26 games. My maths are right, quit confusing!

Moderators Zico Posted June 18, 2011 Moderators Share Posted June 18, 2011 I think whatever we can get him for, permanently, we should take the risk it would be more annoying for him to have another good season next season and then find ourselves going through this again presumably with a) a higher fee required and more competition this is assuming he'd want to come permanently and he scores 15+ next season if a loan is the only option, obvs we take it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BURNDEN BILLY Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 From this mornings gossip on the BBC website. Meanwhile, Chelsea's England Under-21 international Daniel Sturridge could be set for a season-long loan to Newcastle, who are short of firepower following the sales of Andy Carroll and Kevin Nolan.

Boothy Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 Wouldn't Newcastle just buy him outright, considering the cash they got from Andy Carroll's massively inflated move to Liverpool? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

athywhite1958 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 This is one where you really hope OC and Garty are working their bollocks off to entice him to us again, if you were a young player where would you go on loan, Bolton or Newcastle?

BURNDEN BILLY Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 At the end of the day, as we know, it will all boil down to money...........salary, loan payment etc and Newcastle have loads. It wont have anything to do where a player would rather be. The guy coming in at Chelski is alledged to be bringing Falcao with him, that leaves Drog, Analka and Sturridge with there noses out of joint. Torres will be sound as Abromovich wont lose face.

Members DazBob Posted June 22, 2011 Members Share Posted June 22, 2011 Sturridge has a big ego Therefore I can think of about 25,000 reasons True. But, I also think he's hugely ambitious. Whoever his next club is, he'll see as a stepping stone to move onto bigger and better things. He knows that by coming back here he is guaranteed to be in the starting XI every week and he knows he can score goals playing for us. By going to, say, Newcastle, he'd be taking a bit of a gamble. Coming straight back here there is no gamble. If he can hit the ground running again, there's be no reason why he couldn't force himself into the England squad before next summer's Euros (assuming we qualify).

BURNDEN BILLY Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 DazBobParr, Agree with everything you say, except that you seem to think he will have much of a chioce in his destination. I would be delighted to see him back here, perhaps a plan B could be Nicolas Anelka? That gets me equally buzzing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DazBob Posted June 22, 2011 Members Share Posted June 22, 2011 DazBobParr, Agree with everything you say, except that you seem to think he will have much of a chioce in his destination. I would be delighted to see him back here, perhaps a plan B could be Nicolas Anelka? That gets me equally buzzing. Y'know what, I actually think he might have a say in it to a cerain extent. Firstly, unless anyone comes in with an offer around the ?20m mark, I don't think they'll sell. That, realistically, only really leaves him being available for loan and Chelsea won't loan him to anyone that could rival them for a top 4 finish. That leaves a pool of around 14 clubs. You can rule out the newly promoted teams and teams that stayed up by the skin of their teeth (Wolves and Wigan and probably Blackburn). This reduces the options even more. Some clubs might offer a larger loan fee than others, but only to the tune of an extra ?1m or so but I don't think Chelsea would force him to go to one of these clubs for the sake of an extra ?1m. We have shown with Wilshere and Sturridge that we will play young, talented players regardless of their experience, and ultimately they return back to their clubs a better player. It's a win/win/win (Chelsea/Sturridge/BWFC) for all concerned IMO. As for your plan B, yeah what a buzz that would give everyone. Who knows, maybe Anelka enjoyed himself so much whilst here that he'd happily come back on far less money than he's currently on. I wouldn't put any money on it but fingers crossed...
