Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp refuses to single out Daniel Sturridge for special praise following the striker's goal and assist in the 2-1 win over Bournemouth.

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has refused to single out Daniel Sturridge for praise following his side's 2-1 victory over Bournemouth this afternoon.

Sturridge has recently played second fiddle to Divock Origi in Liverpool's biggest games, but was one of 10 changes to the side at Dean Court and picked up a goal and an assist and helped his side to victory.

Klopp described the England international as a "brilliant" player, but was keen to point out that the entire team contributed to the result.

"Nobody is undroppable. I never look at any player and think, 'I can't leave him out'. As a manager, I decide if I play with one, two, three or four strikers," he told reporters.

"[Sturridge] really is in really good shape. Mental-wise and physical-wise it's really good, and for us so important, because, for example, Roberto Firmino now has a problem after he was in perfect shape. He's a brilliant player, [but] this is a game with 11 players. And we come to this. You are interested in one player.

"Each player had influence. I understand it as a team game. I enjoyed the game of Daniel Sturridge [but] we have a football game and you want to talk about one player at the first moment. That's not the role I like. He was very good, but if you are not interested in the game..."

Sturridge has now scored six goals in eight Premier League starts this season.
