Bolton striker Sturridge wants to make Chelsea return

Bolton Wanderers striker Danny Sturridge is looking forward to returning to parent club Chelsea.

Sturridge feels he can find a place in Chelsea's attack.

"When I do go back to Chelsea I'm not going to be worrying about anyone who is at the club," he told the Bolton News.

"I really don't think Torres coming in affects me. Didier [Drogba] and Nico [Anelka] are fantastic players too and I can't wait to get back because I'll be able to show everyone what I can do.

"Football is about being in competition with all of these great players and showing what you can do amongst them. I want to show Chelsea that I can play at this level week after week and I can handle it.

"Bolton are giving me the opportunity and the stage to show what I can do and I'm loving playing under Owen Coyle.

"I was the one that initiated the loan because I wanted to play regularly but the club weren't willing to let me go on loan. They said I wasn't allowed to but I had to kind of force the issue."
