England vs Germany: I will use Daniel Sturridge when I see fit, insists Roy Hodgson

Roy Hodgson said on Monday that he was confident Daniel Sturridge was ready to play against Germany on Tuesday night and that he would use the Liverpool striker as he saw fit – especially as he had been playing with his current hip problem for his club.

Hodgson has made nine changes to the team that lost 2-0 to Chile on Friday, with only Wayne Rooney and Adam Lallana from that side starting tonight. He has also brought back captain Steven Gerrard, who has had injections in his hip to support ligaments in that part of his body, a procedure the player undergoes every two years.

Liverpool striker Sturridge hopes for Suarez stay

Liverpool attacker Daniel Sturridge hopes strike partner Luis Suarez will remain at Anfield as he looks to build on a prolific start alongside the Uruguayan.

Suarez & Sturridge providing consistent quality for Liverpool, says Mignolet

The goalkeeper believes the strike duo's performances have been vital in all areas of the pitch for Brendan Rodgers' side and has refused to talk up the club's title chances.

Given the headline-grabbing displays of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge in recent weeks, Simon Mignolet’s swift integration at Anfield may have been overlooked by many.

The Belgium goalkeeper has conceded just eight goals in his side’s nine Premier League matches, keeping three clean sheets in the process, which has pushed Brendan Rodgers’ men into third spot behind Chelsea and Arsenal.

Jonjo Shelvey starred at both ends as Liverpool survived a late Swansea barrage to maintain their unbeaten start to the season at the Liberty Stadium.

Shelvey weaved through the Reds defence early on to give the hosts the lead, before a stray backpass gifted Daniel Sturridge the chance to score his fourth goal in as many matches.
