Klopp: Sturridge is Needed At Liverpool

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp urged Daniel Sturridge to stay focused despite speculation about his future, saying the Reds still need the England striker.

"I can imagine a player with his quality is not happy that he is not starting all the time, but that's all," he said.

He said, "The situation with the player is completely OK. At this moment we are in November and need all our players — even if he feels a little different. There is around one-and-a-half months before the window opens and I don't think about things like this. There are so many games before then and I need all of them."

Sturridge has made just four Premier League starts this season and another four off the bench, scoring twice.
