He doesn’t give you a lot outside the penalty box but hey he’s scored 16 goals. That’s exactly what we need."Aldridge does not think Sturridge is the answer, even though the England international has not had much of a chance to impress this season.Sturridge has made just five league starts this season, and has failed to score 10 or more goals in the last three campaigns with the Reds. "When we had four players all scoring it was great but you need your match-winner up front," the former Ireland international continued."I think we’ve got to find one. Daniel Sturridge is not going to do it because the manager is not playing him. We need to unearth a 20-goal-a-season man. "Tottenham have got Harry Kane. He’s been through a lean spell but has come through it with flying colours and that shows his strong mental attitude to prove people wrong."</blockquote>
