FIFA 17: Best Liverpool starting lineup
By Tom Bogert
ST Daniel Sturridge
The fun part about playing online games in FIFA is there are no long term injuries nor the notion of rust, so Sturridge gets to just be Sturridge all the time. It’s fantastic, it shows you what this player could be under Klopp.
What’s best for the club, though, is that there’s no longer a reliance directly on Sturridge for goals. Firmino, Coutinho, Mane, Lallana, Divock Origi and some from the midfield and defense make the team a brilliant attack with or without Sturridge.
But when Sturridge is fit, there’s no doubt that he improves the side. He’s a great player when he’s able to play.
Case in point against Hull City. Liverpool scored goals and had a devastating attack with him on the bench, then he comes into a game and wins a penalty within a minute. That’s Sturridge, but it’s great that Liverpool didn’t need him. Then when he came in, he made it better.
Perfection.
