Daniel Sturridge has signed a new 5 year deal with Liverpool. The contract which will run till 2019 sees the forward pocketing £150,000-a-week.

Sturridge has scored 36 goals in 50 matches for The Reds since his arrival from Chelsea for £12 million in 2013.

Recall Dirk played well in the 2007 CL final against Milan. Still think if Rafa played Crouchie together with Dirk at the start, the Reds may have pulled off the double against Milan.

DS is not even worth 1/2 of his new paycheck...
Never a fan now or future
Lazy, not a team player, not good with his head, leg, and dribbling

My view tough, mayb diff from a few..
Its juz tt currently we dont have fwd, tts y all have to lie to ourselves he and balo can succeed ...
I am juz waiting for Jan trf window and see whether we still have any big money to sign.a good forward

KangTuo · #**22072** 04-10-2014, 11:15 PM

Really no luck... Its outside the box but refree give penalty

No clean sheet again

A win at last, I will take them 3 points thank you very much!

This should help lift the Reds confidence level, very much needed.

Lallana is thus far turning out to be the best summer signing. However Liverpool's defence still looks dodgy, BR and his coaching staff really have their work cut out for them.

GeMiNiZzzzZzz · #**22074** 05-10-2014, 01:16 AM

I have to say this, I watch the full match & I thought Lallana was horrible.
Lucky he got the goal if not sure tio Anfield crowds whistle..
We were wondering whether does he know how to control a ball

Mario came on as sub fired up....but as usual fire burnt out in a short while

yea, 3 points nevertheless...

BR better start getting his check book ready for a new striker. Both Rickie & Mario are not suited to Liverpool style of play.

Mario especially is a big con job which fooled everyone but have been found out now by BR and the rest of the coaching team. He came with a big reputation.... but his ball skills are mediocre. BR was shocked that Mario CANNOT dribble with the ball when the whole team warmed up with ball drills and Mario keep losing his ball. Furthermore his tactical awareness is zilch. He is good on deadball situations but dun ask him to run into scoring positions or create space for others cos he does not know where to go!

No wonder all his previous teams were so keen to unload him..... even the new Italy manager Conte does not want Mario in his team despite him not having any experienced strikers in his squad for the coming Euro qualifiers.

Benzema, Mario, Rickie are all in the same mould as Carroll..... ie. a one-dimensional striker. Higuain is more of a winger than a striker. These players would be good for the traditional English style where they boot long balls to the forwards and hope they finish the job..... but they will suffer in ball playing teams like Liverpool.

Luis Suarez was an example of the type of striker that Liverpool needs..... someone who is very mobile and can create space for others. Strikers in the similar mould are Lionel Messi, Marco Reus, Mario Goetze ....... these are the type of players whose playing styles can complement Liverpool's way of playing.

I have to admit it was to difficult to watch the game. The penalty should not have been given. Referee kelong. Glad that AL finally scored his debut goal. Happy for Henderson as well. Lambert is definitely much better than Mario.Liverpool should revert back to playing 2 strikers upfront. What matters most is the result and 3 points. Well done Reds.

Lallana, 25 mil? Most of the time look lost on the pitch! Lol...team like this also can score against pool! Really cant see any lights at the end of the tunnel for the time being. Haiz...

It was a real pain to watch especially the first half. Totally unrecognizable from the team of last season. Granted nearly 50% of the team that started are new players. But where was the possessive football that BR used to emphasize? Lambert added a little extra sting in the attack but hardly effective. Mario can see he was trying to improve on his performance and made some good through passes especially to Raheem Sterling, unfortunately if the ball had not hit Sterling on his knee for the second touch which push it further from him, I think Sterling could have brought the ball down and finish it off. But some how I got a feeling the rest of the team didn't really like playing with Mario.
