Reds rejoice after emphatic display from Liverpool forward

Posted by

Sunday’s 4-0 thrashing of West Ham was made all the more pleasing by Daniel Sturridge’s impressive performance in his first start since January.

Sharp cameos in recent weeks proved to be an accurate representation of where his fitness is at as he put in a display far more influential and valuable than Reds have seen from him in months.

He rewarded the faith Jurgen Klopp had put in him and gave the Liverpool boss good reason to keep him in his starting eleven for next week’s decisive final game of the season against Middlesbrough.

The conviction and the composure to round goalkeeper Adrián before slotting home into an empty net for Liverpool’s opener typified how deadly can still be, making his regular absences from injury this season all the more frustrating.

He seemed to thrive with another striker playing alongside him in Divock Origi and having a technician like Philippe Coutinho occupying a more central position that saw him constantly pick up the ball before feeding Sturridge’s movement.

The England star’s Liverpool future remains uncertain yet supporters have seemingly been swayed towards the club keeping hold of him thanks to a reminder of his talent.
