Robbie
Fowler feels Daniel Sturridge has the talent to be Liverpool’s
undisputed first-choice striker following Luis Suarez’s departure.
Sturridge finished second in the Premier
League scoring charts last season with 21 goals – a haul that was only
bettered by his former team-mate Suarez, who joined Barcelona last
month.
And Fowler, who scored 183 goals during two spells at Anfield, has backed the England forward to fill the void.
“He’s got that chance now, to go out
there and prove to everyone what we already know: that he’s a great
player,” Fowler told Liverpool’s official website.
“We know he’s been a shining light since he’s been here, but now he’s got even more of a chance.”
Following the sale of Suarez, many
observers have suggested that Liverpool will struggle to replicate the
form that saw them finish agonisingly short of winning the title last
season, but Fowler disagrees.
