Sporting thought of the day.

Daniel Sturridge only had to make a quick phonecall to his Manchester City team-mate Shaun Wright-Phillips to discover the perils of moving to Chelsea.

The Birmingham-born teenager, nephew of ex-Wolves striker Dean and former Blues forward SImon, has obviously wanted away from Eastlands for sometime and is now set to head to the capital.

While Sturridge is an exciting young talent, he is hardly a world-beater and will find himself warming the Stamford Bridge bench on more occasions than he will actually take to the field for the Premier League giants.

If Sturridge is happy to continue his development on the fringes of Chelsea's first-team then fair play to the lad, but he only has to look at the likes of Wright-Phillips, Scott Sinclair and Glen Johnson to see the frustration that is likely to come his way.
