Divock Origi and Daniel Sturridge have only ever started three Liverpool games together but the Belgian insists that they can flourish because his teammate is more than a finisher.
It was Origi who made way for Sturridge on Tuesday against Stoke and the Englishman scored Liverpool’s fourth goal of the game.
The pair started a League Cup game against Tottenham this season and they won 2-1 __with two goals from Sturridge.
Last season they started one Premier League game – a 3-2 defeat at Southampton – and a 6-1 League Cup game against the same opposition which featured an Origi hat-trick and Sturridge brace.
“I look at all the striker here,” Origi told the Daily Mail. “Daniel (Sturridge) has a lot of finishing skills, so maybe that makes people not think about his passing skills. But he has got a lot of passing skills. A lot.
“He can eliminate a defender and put a striker through on goal. Nearly every time I play __with Daniel, I enjoy my game.”
