Daniel Sturridge has said he wants manager Jurgen Klopp to afford him more game time but accepts he has to deliver when the chances come.
He told Liverpool’s official website: “It’s getting that rhythm, that flow. For myself, I feel like I’m best when I’m like that playing regularly.
“But the manager picks the team and I’ll never cause any issues or problems in the camp because he’s the boss. I have a lot of respect for him and for his decisions.
“When I go onto the pitch it’s important for me to show what I can do. It doesn’t matter how many minutes you get — you’ve got to put your best foot forward and show what you can do for the team.”
The goal against Huddersfield was only Sturridge’s fourth in 2017, and the England international said he had forgotten he had been waiting to bring up his career century.
“I didn’t even think about that — I completely forgot,” he added. “Hopefully there will be a lot more to come. There could have been a lot more, but you can never look at the past, you look to the future and hopefully I’ll be able to score another 100 before my career is over.”
