Liverpool legend Lawro: Fit Sturridge changes everything

Liverpool legend Mark Lawrenson was delighted seeing two-goal Daniel Sturridge back for victory over Aston Villa.

Lawrenson wrote for the Liverpool Echo: "After his brace against Villa, there's no way he'll be anything than 100% for the next Premier League game. And with it being at Everton, Sturridge will be needed.

"Everybody recognises Sturridge is a great talent, it's just keeping him on the pitch that has been the issue.

"And that will, you suspect, always remain the case.

"With two mobile forwards in Sturridge and Danny Ings, the difference in Liverpool's game was noticeable. They could stretch the game and the midfield had more room in which to play."
