Swansea City boss Paul Clement admits he's a big fan of Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge.

The Reds face Swansea in the early kickoff today.

"I worked with him at Chelsea, and Daniel is a very, very talented player and if he can stay injury free and get a consistent run in the team he is as good as any striker there is," he said.

"He has fantastic pace, a good left foot, individual skill. He has just had problems with injuries and hopefully he will not have one of his better games on Saturday.

"Physically he can do what Jurgen Klopp wants from his strikers, he has the physical attributes. There is a lot of selfless work and mental strength involved in that style of high-intensity pressing game.

"We did not play like that at Chelsea, and we had Florent Malouda, Didier Drogba and Nicolas Anelka so he played mostly coming in from the wide area.

"He is a very good player but they have other good players too like Coutinho, Firmino and Adam Lallana.

"They have always had good front players but he is as good as any on his day."
