Listen I don't expect you to agree with me. Giroud is the better player alround, Sturridge has been a journey man who has finally found form. I like the guy but he is not as good a footballer as Giroud.

Time will tell........

goodbye top 4 if he's our striker replacement for Suarez .

He has good stats for Swansea no doubt but i don't he'd suit our fast passing, high pressing game.his link up play is clumsy at the best of times and I definitely think a WF type player like Sanchez or a griezman type player that can create and score with pace is vital.

Bony would score more than Griezman would. Creativity needs to be replaced but goals need to be replaced also.

Think about it, if Suarez goes to Barcelona and Sanchez goes to Arsenal that's a 60-goal swing in Arsenal's favour over us next season....

Journeyman? Giroud has played at more clubs than Sturridge. 31 goals in 43 games for Liverpool compared to 27 goals in 70. Even with the highly debatable claim that Giroud is a better all round player, I know who I'd rather have in my side.

I don't think you've done your homework on this one, Soups.

Would definitely consider Sturridge to be much better with the ball at his feet, and is a lot more comfortable when drifting wide or dropping deep.

Giroud is better as a target man, and laying off for onrushing midfielders, but that's about it imo.

Think of the hold up play though.

This must be one of most ridiculous posts I've read since I joined these boards. Time has told already and will continue to tell that sturridge is far far better. Haha what a post

Soups sounds like you have had too many scoops!!
That statement is malogen
Giroud average at best.

the incredible pudding

Giroud is better with his back to the goal than Sturridge is (though in some games his control fails him), beyond that I don't really see anything else that he does better. He's probably better in the air but the accuracy of his heading is worse than Sturridge's.

We sold Andy too soon.

to many replys and gifs so I won't multi quote.

Sturridge is a good player but Giroud is a level above, his goal count has been high due to how Liverpool have played and the volume they have scored but his miss rate is also high.

He out does Giroud on goals scored in the last year but that is it, lets see who has the better season this year.

Its only my opinion

Daniel Sturridge. 43 appearances for Liverpool. 31 goals.

QED

passremarkable

Id love to ask a few PL defenders who they would rather play against .
Is be confident most would rather play against Giroud. Just my IMO of course
Most defenders hate marking pace

That 's some run of form that Sturridge is on. Knocking on 2 years now.

That's fair enough really. Think this needs a bet though, maybe most goals + assists in PL next season?

I can see it being closer than last year to be honest

Giroud wouldn't get into our starting 11.

I would have sturridge all day long

the incredible pudding

Do people keep forgetting that even before Sturridge went to Liverpool, his goals per minute ratio was still very, very good? It's around .7 goals for every 90 minutes, that includes his spells at Chelsea, City and loan spell at Bolton. He's been a very good striker for a long, long time.

One thing that Giroud definitely does better than Sturridge is being the "wall" in a wall pass. He's very good at that.

Hair is also magnificent.
