Striker Daniel Sturridge says the understanding and rapport he's struck up with Luis Suarez is 'a beautiful thing' and revealed he even hopes to get his strike partner dancing.
"It's a beautiful thing to have the relationship on the field with him," Sturridge told KICK OFF Magazine. "We have a good understanding, have assisted each other on different occasions and it's a great feeling. We help each other and improve each other and we also get along off the field."
Sturridge's trademark 'wriggly arms' celebration has caught on with some fans, but as yet his team-mates have not got on board with it, with the surprising exception of Jamie Carragher who threw down some shapes with the striker last season in the win at at Fulham. "I think Carra tried it maybe because his son put a lot of pressure on him," said Sturridge.
"I like Carra's son a lot, he's a good kid and I used to have a bit of banter with him when he'd come around here so I think he forced his daddy to do it. I would love the guys to get involved, but so far, only Carra has been brave enough."
Can we expect to see Suarez follow suit? "I don't know if he's got the rhythm for that yet," Sturridge joked. "But what I will say is he is definitely someone I could try to teach. Whether he takes it on board or not, is a different story."
