Daniel Sturridge – 5

Now, another player who was used out of position. Daniel Sturridge spent most of his time on the right side of the pitch, and struggled to get involved with the game. He sat far too deep, and kept coming to the ball to try and create instead of running and providing options.

He struggled against the stacked Burnley defence, but should have been played as a central player from the very start. He always looks composed, but his distance shooting doesn’t help as much as his clever dribbling can.
