Eriksson praise for Chelsea youngster Sturridge

Former Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson says Danny Sturridge can be a big hit at Chelsea.

"I was in Manchester City for one year, and Sturridge I saw beside the training ground for six or seven months, he was injured," the Swede told the official Chelsea website.

"So only towards the end of the time I was there, he started training with us and started to play some reserve games and first team friendlies.

"If I don't remember badly he came on in the first team in the league as well, and it was easy to see this is a very good footballer."
