Liverpool emphatically answered the burning question of how Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge would work together after the Uruguayan's lengthy ban as the pair combined with devastating effect in Sunday's 3-1 win at Sunderland.
.
While Suarez was serving a 10-match ban for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic, Sturridge had established himself as Liverpool's main man up front and this week's return of the other top striker had pundits scratching their heads over how both would fit in.
.
In the event, manager Brendan Rodgers changed his formation to accommodate them and while they lost at Manchester United in the Capital One Cup midweek, the partnership's potential shone in Sunderland as Sturridge scored one and set up two for Suarez.

The England striker leads the Premier League scoring chart with five goals but said he was more than happy to rack up the assists if required now that Suarez was back.
The 3 goals to 1 win was just a wonderful one cause it came at the right time. Kudos to the team for their hardwork so far...
