Danny Murphy has told talkSPORT Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge is ‘up there with Harry Kane’, and that the duo are the best ‘naturally-gifted finishers’ at England’s disposal.
Sturridge has been named in Gareth Southgate’s latest Three Lions squad for upcoming World Cup friendlies against Slovenia and Lithuania, despite his poor form in a Reds shirt.
The 28-year-old is out-of-favour under Jurgen Klopp and has started just three of his seven appearances for the Reds this season, scoring only one goal.
Kane, meanwhile, is perhaps one of the most in-form frontmen in world football having netted 13 goals in his past eight games for club and country.
