Liverpool legend Ian Rush is convinced of big things from striker Danny Sturridge.

Sturridge fired 11 goals in just 16 games following his January move to L4 and Rush is a big fan of the No.15.

"Sturridge can get even better without a doubt," Rush told liverpoolfc.com.

"He's got some great skill and with a good pre-season I think you will see an even better Sturridge next season.

"He needs to get fully fit. He was absolutely incredible in some of the games. He has got a good football brain, Coutinho has as well - some of the passes he put through were absolutely superb.

"When you've got the likes of Coutinho, Sturridge, Luis Suarez, Steven Gerrard and people like that you have got four or five people who can win your games when previously we only had one or two.

"Sturridge has had a couple of little injuries but if he can get fully fit and get through the pre-season then I think there are exciting times ahead."
