Daniel Sturridge

Sky Sports pundit Charlie Nicholas claims that global forward Daniel Sturridge should take an example out of former Manchester United striker Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s book in order to avoid his career stagnating.

Solskjaer is widely regarded as one of the iconic Manchester United players over the last 20 years. Even though he was not a first-team regular at the club, the Norwegian played an immense role in the successes enjoyed by the club during the select Ferguson era. He never complained about being on the bench and often came on to score as a late substitute.

Liverpool skipper Jordan Henderson and striker Daniel Sturridge are doubts for the game against Burnley this weekend, according to reports.

The duo missed the last two games and they would likely sit out the crucial game on Super Sunday.

Daniel Sturridge’s future continues to remain under a cloud of doubt after he was forced to leave the warm weather training that the club recently scheduled for the players in Malaga.

After being knocked out of the EFL Cup and the FA Cup, Liverpool do not have anything to play for other than the Premier League in the remainder of the season. They were recently given a two week break as a result of the FA Cup fifth round games conflicting the schedule. Liverpool utilised this break to schedule a warm weather training camp in the south of Spain.

Rio Ferdinand did not like the fact that Daniel Sturridge talked up his overall goal scoring rate for Liverpool in his latest interview and declared himself the no. 1 attacker of the Reds on the basis of that.

As per Ferdinand, how good you are at a given point of time is not determined by what numbers you have got against your name till date. It’s about what your form is at that stage and if Sturridge has to prove that he is indeed the best bet of Jurgen Klopp in the frontline, he can do it only by showing form and not by showing his numbers.

Jordan Henderson is of the opinion that Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is extremely frustrated with the lack of first-team action this season.

Due to various injury problems, manager JurgenKlopp has had to look at other options like Roberto Firmino for the role of a striker.

Out-of-favour striker Daniel Sturridge is set to lose his place in the Liverpool set-up as the club wants to reportedly use him as bait to sign two Southampton players in January or at the end of the season.

The Mirror reports that Sturridge could be the bait as the Reds want to lure The Saints to sell defender Virgil van Dijk and forward Sam Mcqueen, who are 25 and 21 years old respectively. Other reports say a swap deal would be likely as Southampton are keen on landing Sturridge.

Jurgen Klopp says that he has been left impressed by the performance of Daniel Sturridge in the recent EFL Cup match for his team.

The Liverpool striker continued his impressive record in the competition after managing two more goals against Tottenham. It helped Liverpool progress into the next round of the competition following a 2-1 win.

The former Borussia Dortmund's coach, Jurgen Klopp insists "all will be good" with Daniel Sturridge notwithstanding the England international's benching in the 1-1 draw at Tottenham in August.

The 27-year old seemed displeased on the bench as he came on in the dying minutes of the 1-1 draw at White Hart Lane on Saturday 27th of August.

Nemanja Vidic and Steven Gerrard are the two players that have received the highest number of red cards in clashes between Liverpool and Manchester United.

This revelation comes ahead of the game between both sides on Monday night in the English Premier League.
Anthony Taylor is the referee set to officiate the game and history reveals that both sides have a poor disciplinary record when facing each other going into this game.

Jurgen Klopp has denied that he cut short Daniel Sturridge’s presence on the pitch versus Chelsea out of anger as the Birmingham born player had argued with him disrespectfully on the side lines.

The visuals suggested that Klopp was showing his non-conviction about the position Sturridge was getting into, but, Sturridge, on the other hand, was not convinced about Klopp’s ideas and was not convinced that he was not getting into correct position and it led to an argument which none of the two would have preferred to happen in the camera view and at a time when their relationship is already under scrutiny.
