Klopp scoffs at Sturridge rift
Print Edition
JUERGEN Klopp has dismissed suggestions that Daniel Sturridge is frustrated with the role he’s being asked to play at Liverpool.
Sturridge featured on the right side last weekend as Liverpool lost 0-2 at Burnley in the Premier League, and was used in a similar capacity in the 5-0 win over Burton Albion in the League Cup on Tuesday.
Speaking after that match, Sturridge indicated that he was finding it hard to play in a wide role rather than as a center-forward, but any suggestion of disharmony has been dismissed by Klopp.
“There is absolutely no problem,” Klopp told reporters yesterday when asked about the forward’s apparent complaint. “I don’t want to play Daniel as a wide player but he can play there. Daniel is a very smart player. He’s good at getting himself into positions where it’s not easy to defend. It’s flexible football. It’s about getting in and around the box.”
