Coyle: I'll try to get Dan back

Sturridge spent the second half of last season at the Reebok Stadium, impressing with eight goals in 12 appearances. The England Under-21 international has admitted he wants to try and break his way into the Chelsea side, but Coyle believes he would be better off returning to Bolton for another loan spell. "We will try and get him back here for next season," Coyle told the Daily Star. "It's a win-win situation - for the player, the parent club and for us. "I feel with Daniel that another period at Bolton will take him on to the next level and then he will be a starter for Chelsea. "Right now he is behind Drogba, Torres, Malouda, Anelka and Kalou. Like all our loan players, we give them a platform and belief they can play in the best league in the world. "Daniel set the place alight during his time here - and we'd love him back to help with his development next season."
