My Take
Daniel Sturridge had one of the purest goalscoring instincts of his generation, and that is what I keep coming back to. After developing through Aston Villa's academy and passing through Coventry and Manchester City, he truly flourished at Liverpool, where his finishing looked almost effortless. For a striker of his height his footwork was unusually delicate, and that signature celebration dance became part of football culture. I find his move into Sky Sports punditry fitting; a player who read the game that well should have plenty worth saying. I have a soft spot for specialists who master one craft completely, and his was scoring.
