Liverpool coach Jurgen Klopp seeks more goals from strikers
Klopp maintains he will not rush Sturridge back into action too soon, although the player himself says he is now good to go and Danny Ings remains out for the rest of the season with a ligament injury.

Liverpool’s dazzling renaissance under their new boss – including emphatic wins over Chelsea, Man City and Southampton – soon fizzled out, but they are full of high-quality players and Allardyce admits he would take a point after four demoralising losses in a row for the Black Cats. I thought we were very close after Stoke and we’ve failed miserably since then. “We need to get back to being resilient and we need to get back to being spoilers to get ourselves the result”.
The Reds tried their luck on no fewer than 26 occasions against Leicester City during the Boxing Day clash at Anfield but just five of those efforts were on target – one of which was successfully converted by Christian Benteke to secure the 1-0 win.
Earlier this month they were heavy favourites to outclass a struggling Newcastle side but Steve McClaren’s men beat them 2-0 at St James’ Park.
Sunderland have lost 70 league matches against Liverpool – only against Everton (71) have they lost more often (also lost 70 v Aston Villa).
“We have to use his natural skills and he has to try to be more involved in the game, that’s all, and then we can make steps together”.
Sunderland are now seven points from safety, a gap Allardyce says needs to be bridged as soon as possible. We should be doing that every week and make sure we do it again against Sunderland. We want to play football and if you get a second ball you have to re-focus and fight for it.
