Liverpool's Mignolet: Having Sturridge and Suarez always gives us a chance

Simon Mignolet is of the belief that having attacking pair Daniel Sturridge and Luis Suarez in the Liverpool team always has the Anfield club in with a chance of scoring.

The Reds produced a last-gasp show to force a 3-3 draw with Merseyside rivals Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday with Sturridge chiming in for the final goal in the 89th minute.

After the match, goalkeeper Mignolet heaped praise on the in-form pair who both have nine Premier League goals after Suarez's 19th-minute effort in the draw.

"I have to be honest once they scored at 3-2 you think you are losing the game but looking back we are always there scoring goals," he said.

"We always get a chance with Daniel and Luis and we know they have goals.

"Daniel scored the equaliser which was very important for us as it means we can keep going in the way we started this season and make sure we build on that.

"If we win next week this can be a very important point for us."
