'Finished at the top', 'Just give it up' – Liverpool fans react to Sturridge incident v Chelsea

Dave is a huge Leeds fan and ardent disciple of Bielsa ball. A career in print magazines that included editing PC Zone, launching PokerPlayer and redesigning The Big Issue has finally led Dave to writing about the love of his life, Leeds United. It’s been a tough 2020 but the single scariest moment was the first quarter of the game against Man City. Rodrigo will be the saviour this season.

Daniel Sturridge lasted all of three minutes in his second start for West Brom against Chelsea before trudging off with what looked like a hamstring injury. It's another huge setback for the striker who has suffered from a massive amount of injury setbacks in the past few seasons. He joined West Brom on a season-long loan and is yet to score a goal for them and the signs were worrying on Monday evening as he left the field shaking his head and without consulting a physio. Liverpool fans were full of sympathy for their talented striker but one said that he was "finished at the top level" and that Klopp was right to move him out from Liverpool. Another Liverpool fan said that he just wasn't made to play football while another said he had "so much talent". Here is a selection of the best reactions from Liverpool fans to Sturridge's latest injury problems:
