Anfield Watch Verdict

Sturridge was a fine player for Liverpool between 2013-19. The forward scored 68 goals and registered 26 assists in 160 appearances for the club's first-team.

Sturridge could have scored quite a few more goals for Liverpool had he not suffered so many injuries.

But, we will always remember the striker as one of the club's better players in the past decade.
