sturridge qwill go to chealsea and like swp(shaun­ wright phillips) will not get his chance and go bac to­ city

I see you are still on the con. Who made you a sir me­ old mucker steve jones?

Hughes can only comfort stars at the top end of the­ game, so then he starts selling all of young stars. I­ agree with comment 44, Hughes needs out

If an electrician went to his boss and said I will make­ this company the greatest in England and I want 60K a­ year to do it, his boss will look at what he has done­ and if he was a superstar electrician he might consider­ it but if he was only learning his trade and not proven­ himself then his boss would say get lost!
How can a 19­ year old unproven footballer be so greedy and demand­ top footballer wages and expect his boss to say ok.­ don't blame Mark Hughes for Daniel Sturrage leaving­ you need to blame him and his Agent for not waiting a­ year or two for him to make a name for himself like the­ other Academy lads have

sirstevejones12- ur a looser. BNP not a bain cell­ between them, I'd rather vote for Halfwit from big­ brother..

bad move look at swp what happened to him at chelsea­
looks like theres no room in city for young players­
anymore so why have a youth academy

someone should put a knife in daan_jarvis the @#$% with­ his spam lol

I wish people would stop abusing these message sites­ with their spamming. Disgraceful! This page is about­ Daniel Sturridge joining Chelsea not about if one wants­ a Playstation 3! Gey off of this page and go home,­ spammers!

Tis a shame. The lad was pretty talented but­ unfortunately not only did he have fast feet but he­ also had a fast mouth.

I can understand those that are­ saying why let such a talent go but MH has to get the­ harmony in the dressingroom right, a hyperboosted ego­ type like Sturridge at only 19 isnt going to benefit­ the team.

The cool way he slid in Robinho for the­ equaliser against Blackburn under pressure from the­ defence and time way a fine piece of football from­ someone so young...trouble is he still hasn't­ stopped trying to remind us all of it.

Darren M, you're a fool. He's far more likely­ to rot at City with the amount of strikers they have.­ Chelsea only have 2 strikers they feel really­ comfortable using. He'll probably get more playing­ time there which is only a good thing for him.

sturidge is a good player but he cant be as good as­ drogba and anelka. look at franco di sANTO!

I honestly believe that this is a real indication of­ how agents are ruining football. (we'll not even­ start on that parasite Joorabchian [excuse the­ spelling]).

I'm a United fan but to take the­ blinkers off and be sensible about things this kid­ looked like a real prospect to me. It seems obvious­ that his agent has seen a potential payday for himself­ and 'advised' the boy to go to Chelsea... where­ he'll rot on the bench like all the rest of their­ young talent.

kissed goodbye to the next 3 or 4 yrs of his career

I thought the 10 million that City were wanting was a­ bit excessive. Even the 3 million Chelsea were offering­ was a bit much.

Don´t forget light blue is the colour­ in Manchester!!!

The Pope decides to go round a ward in a British­­­ hospital and perform a few "miracles"on a­­­ select few Patients !
He goes to the 1st patient who­­­ is blind , touches his eyes , and the guy­ say's­­
"It's a miracle I can see now ,­ thank you­ very­ much !
He then goes to the 2nd patient­ who is­ deaf ,­ touches his ears , and the guy­ say's
"It's­ a miracle I can hear now ,­ thank you­ very much !
He­ then goes to the third­ patient­ who comes from chelski london­ , and confined­ to a­ wheel chair , before he gets a­ chance to do­ anything­ the Patient says " NO, BACK­ OFF , Im­ on­ invalidity Benefit!!!!!

#45 Sturridge isnt wiv the U21s cos hes injured, but­ its just another sign of the the 'red one'­ trying to ruin city, paying 15m for santa cruz, butting­ letting go of one of our hottest talents for peanuts,­ idiot, btw chelski offered us 10m for sturridge 2 years­ ago, if we wanted to sel him we shouldve done it then.

This is long term bad news for City. If they wish to­ build a club that will break the top 4 they need to­ build for the future and holding on to young talent is­ key to that aim. If I were a City fan I would be­ worried by this.
