Liverpool skipper Gerrard lauds Sturridge arrival

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has heaped praise on Daniel Sturridge following his move from Chelsea in January.

The 23-year old striker has scored four goals in six games for the Reds since his £12million shift from London and Gerrard admits he has brought an extra dimension to the sides attack.

"The team is looking really strong at the moment," he told the Liverpool Echo.

"Before the transfer window we were lacking a bit up front as Luis Suarez was almost having to do two jobs.

"But now Daniel Sturridge has come in and given us more options going forward.

"Daniel has done brilliantly for us so far."
