Don't concern yourself. Sturridge will be doing the offski from your cowpatch when Todgers starts giving him grief about playing/showing off for England again. Hodgson has already started the ball rolling at the weekend.

our return leg is on ITV1 next week though so I think it's more about the kick off time than who is playing

That doesn't answer my question and I can't compute why Sturridge
would leave Liverpool where he has developed into a world class striker because Brendan Rodgers stopped him playing for England- something which will never happen.

I've already accepted the inevitability of Gerrard lifting the FA Cup.
It makes it a bit easier when the vast majority of neutrals (possibly the same neutrals who all wanted them to win the league last season) find it almost as sickening as we do.
And when Blackburn knock them out with a Shane Duffy goal I will just laugh, and laugh.

Brendan Rodgers never wanted Sturridge... fact - least of all developed him into a world class striker. He is a very good player when hes on song...and Rodgers got lucky because FSG wanted Sturridge. The player himself however has no preconceptions about Rodgers being his Svengali...check his body language/attitude towards his Boss in the past on substitution. Lets face it, hes had enough time sitting on his arse/going to Subway/the States to contemplate it. When Rodgers tries to criticise and perhaps curtail his England involvement for his crazy 'recovery day' programme regarding his LFC games, watch Sturridge's ego kick in...especially when the media frenzy commences when fellow striker Harry Kane gets his inevitable and, more to the point, imminent call up.

Wasn't my point was it? England went out the world cup because the media hyped up Sterling and Sturridge so much that spineless Roy moved Rooney out of his two best positions to accomodate them and they screwed up because they are not world class. We'd have got out our world cup group if Sturridge hadn't missed all those chances. Other teams with top strikers put them away. The only reason he is still with you rubbing shoulders with messrs Lambert Borini and Balotelli is because he's not world class. If he does manage to become world class he'll be off like Suarez was. Welcome to the new order mate. How many years of calling us a selling club will it take you to realise you're in exactly the same position and have in fact sold more than us?

Who's even arsed about England?
Anyway, Rodgers didnt develop Sturridge into what he is now, his minutes per goal has always been 1 in abouyt 65 minutes, whichever club he has been at. Only difference has been at liverpool he plays every week, wheras in other teams he was 3rd choice. Its as simple as that.

The draw has so obviously been rigged. What are the chances of them getting Reading or Bradford in the semi? Pretty high I'd say. All set up for Slippy's special day *throws up*

If they pull either United or Arsenal out of the hat for a SF, they wont reach the final. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Blackburn upset the odds.
Rodgers has the stink of a loser on him. Imo, he wont win a thing with Liverpool before he gets sacked. He just has that aura of failure about him.

Yes, the more I think about it, the more you can see that Suarez really was the real deal for them and raised them to another level. Even Torres was never that good. I've never hated a player quite like Suarez, he is the epitome of a scumbag, but really what a player. And how funny of Brent to think he could have survived without him.
As for Sturridge he is a fairly bog standard decent striker. He is the Andy Cole or Ian Wright of his generation, but nowhere near as prolific as either of those players, but similar in style. He is quick and not a bad finisher. It's only really in England where such players are viewed in such a positive light.
The point about Wellbeck is fair too. He does a lot of work for the wider good of the team yet receives very few plaudits. Neither Sturridge nor Wellbeck will ever be prolific but I know who I'd rather have in my team.
As for internationals, yes I don't mind them playing them too. I have always thought the Ingerland circus was made for Liverpool really. Cringey home counties beauts who've got rop all else in their lives desperately trying to whip up a bit of national pride because their own teams are uniformly awful. A lot of them will even support your Liverpools of this world. The fan fare and cringyness of the Liverpool bandwagon fits perfectly to the general drudgery and goonishness of the national team as well. Long may it continue.
