Steven Gerrard urges Daniel Sturridge to prove himself at Liverpool

Steven Gerrard says that Daniel Sturridge has all the conditions and the environment at Liverpool to establish himself as a top player.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has said that newly-signed striker Daniel Sturridge will have "no excuses" if he fails at the club.

The 23-year-old joined the Reds from Chelsea on Wednesday on a "long-term contract".
.
"He has said he wants to play football for a big club," BBC Sport quotes Gerrard as saying. "There'll be no excuses. He'll be with good players at a great club.

"Daniel has the quality. I know he's got it - I've seen it. He's suffered a bit at Manchester City and moved on to Chelsea where he hasn't played as much as he wanted but has shown flashes of brilliance.

"I think he's at the age now when he needs to settle down, get a settled club and show consistently what qualities he's got. It's all there for him. He just has to go and grasp it with both hands."

Sturridge scored 24 in 96 games for Chelsea.
