Liverpool have had a great start to the campaign given their aspirations for the title/Champions League Berth is concerned but suddenly the hope might just sway away into oblivion. Although Suarez is tearing apart the Premier League defences this season, Sturridge’s absence might just prove to be a burden for the Uruguayan. The 23 year old Englishman bagged nine league goals already this term before disaster befell Liverpool. We here at soccersouls decided to scout for Liverpool’s options to replace the injured striker this coming January Transfer window before their hopes blow off into thin air.
Danny Ings (Burnley):
According to the Mirror, Brendan Rodgers has put Burnley goal machine Danny Ings at the top of his Christmas wish-list. The Burnley man who has been excellent for the Championship side has so far grabbed 15 goals in all competitions and is an integral part of England’s Under 21 side led by Gareth Southgate. Liverpool fans will no doubt be hoping their side sign a more experienced, well established name to boost their top four credentials. While Danny Ings might be the one for the future, his inexperience of playing at the top level might just work against him. Will he be the right choice for the Reds? Let’s wait and watch. With Iago Aspas not performing as expected, Rodgers and the Reds would feel that Ings could be more than useful in the business end of the campaign and the youngster having played in England could easily adapt to the Premier League conditions.
