Danny Sturridge admits he was arrogant over his the way he moved from Manchester City to Chelsea.

Now the striker wants the world to know that he has learned this lesson as he starts to make his mark in the game.

Sturridge admits to The Sun: "I said some things when I first signed for Chelsea that made people ask, 'who does this kid think he is?'

"I was just a young guy who had left Manchester City for compensation only. I'd never done anything in football or started regularly in anyone's first team.

"In my mind, I knew where I wanted to go and I thought I was just confident. Now I realise I came across as arrogant as the things I said were a bit ludicrous.

"But anyone who meets me knows I'm not like that and people are starting to recognise that."
