#2 Daniel Sturridge

From being one of the spearheads of the "S.A.S" strike force that almost led Liverpool to a Premier League title in 2014 to an outcast clinging onto a bench-warming role, Daniel Surridge's career has been, a downward slope.

Hit by injuries since Klopp first took over, the player still remains the only striker in the Liverpool squad in most matchday squads with Divok Origi often missing out. Completely out of place in a gegenpressing team, the player has not only been stagnating in the squad but also blocking the entry of any new forward into the squad. His recent years has displayed a decline in pace and finishing which made him force a loan move to West Bromwich Albion.

"It felt like being with the wrong woman" Sturridge described his time away on loan at West Brom. Seen by Klopp as a substitue to Firmino, Sturridge is yet to showcase any of the Brazilian's qualities.
