“As for Sturridge, he comes across as quite possibly the most likable man to ever wear the Liverbird. The chicken teriyaki enthusiast has been defying expectations and unfounded prejudice since he arrived at the club to a lukewarm fan response. He was a troublemaker, you see. He had a poor attitude and was a he Big Time Charlie, don't you know? The Chelsea guys said so and Jose Mourinho has never been anything other than ethical and sincere, right? Right?

“Svako leto krajem avgusta i početkom septembra preko Prinčevskih ostrva preleću jata roda koja stižu sa severozapada, sa Balkana, spuštajući se na jug da tu provedu zimu. I sada sam izlazio u baštu dok su preletala jata roda kao u mom detinjstvu i zadivljen posmatrao odlučno i misteriozno putovanje "hodočasnika", čiji se lepet krila mogao čuti u tišini. Kad sam bio dete, dve nedelje po prolasku jata roda, s tugom bismo se vraćali brodom u Istanbul. Dok bih kod kuće čitao tri meseca stare vesti u novinama okačenim na prozore i požutelim od letnjeg sunca, osećao bih se opčinjen i razmišljao koliko vreme sporo prolazi.”
