Wrighty urges Liverpool striker Sturridge to "stop trying to go around keeper"

Arsenal legend Ian Wright has offered goalscoring advice to Liverpool striker Danny Sturridge. Sturridge squandered two big chances as Liverpool fell to a 2-1 FA Cup defeat to the Gunners.

Wright - who scored 185 goals for Arsenal - told BBC Radio 5Live: "Daniel Sturridge seems always to want to go round a keeper because his pace gets him there.

"He should just lift it over the goalie.

"Going round the goalkeeper means you must get everything absolutely right.

"These are the opportunities that he needs to take quickly, those half-chances you need to gobble up."
