the injuries messed him up big time. missed something like 2 years of actual playing before he got training again. when you're 19 odd, that would mess with you something terrible. started drinking and shit during all that and just never picked it up. doesn't even train with us or nothing, gets paid a handsome wage (20k a week) to literally do nothing.

1 game in 3 seasons is terrible.

He can have no complaints for getting released though regardless of whether he could still fulfill his potential now, earning the wage he's earned for that is crazy.

We've all seen how Rooney gets when he has a few weeks off, this lad never stood a chance once he started his slope downwards.

EDIT: Reminds me of Van Der Meyde for us. Getting pissed and coked up in town every week, not forgetting always a new injury every week, he consistantly got given chance after chance to get over his injuries and problems but he wasn't strong enough to do it.

Really wonder how well Sturridge will fare at Liverpool? A talented young kid but not much of a footballing brain. Possibly Rodgers will be able to get the best out of him but I must admit that I am still struggling to see where he will fit in as surely you cannot move Suarez from the central strikers role; which is exactly where Sturridge says he wants to play. Possibly just behind Suarez as he did when on loan at Bolton? Anyway, I will be following his development and from a purely England point of view I hope that Sturridge actually comes good.

My initial guess. At least for now anyway is that Sturridge will play on the right wing, with Downing moving back to defence while Enrique is injured

Reina

Johnson - Agger - Skrtel - Downing

Lucas

Allen - Stevie

Sturridge - Suarez - Sterling

Most like see something like that occuring

£12m is steep for someone out of contract in the summer. Not convinced he'll regularly score goals for Liverpool. He aint gonna replace Suarez so unless they change formation he'll be out wide again. He isn't clinical enough as a finisher, he's really greedy and his link up play is non existent. I guess it's an upgrade on Cole or Downing or even Borini but I don't see him being better than Suso or Sterling in say .... 3 years time.

Chelsea getting Ba for £5m less than Sturridge is hysterical though. Not convinced he'll be satisfied at how much they'll play him though. Torres aint playing second fiddle to him.

West Ham are poised to make their first signing in the January transfer window with teenage sensation Rinor Nushi set to arrive at the club.

Quote:

The Hammers are in pole position to sign the 16-year-old after he spent time at the Boleyn Ground.

However, he is also attracting interest from a number of high-profile clubs including Arsenal and Juventus.

Nushi is a pacey forward who currently plies his trade in his native Sweden for Stockholm-based club AFC United.

The club's sporting director Hamid Kavodvand has admitted that he expects the player from Albanian descent to make a move overseas in this window.

He told skysports.com: "Rinor is attracting a lot of interest and it is unlikely that we will be able to keep him here.

"At the moment he prefers West Ham after enjoying his time there, but no deal has been agreed at this stage."

One for the future!

Liverpool signed Daniel Sturridge for £12m and Chelsea signed Demba Ba for £7m. Well done Liverpool !!
