Emile Heskey insists Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is more than just a good impact player, saying his poor performance against Southampton was just a bad day at the office.

Jurgen Klopp handed the Reds frontman a chance to impress by naming him in the starting line-up in Wednesday night’s EFL Cup semi-final first leg at St Mary’s.

But the striker was far from his best, with Liverpool mustering just one clear chance as the Saints claimed a 1-0 advantage ahead of their trip to Anfield.
