gave him the chance to prove he could be the star he has become.
The former Manchester City youngster has been scoring goals for fun in the early weeks of the season, and he claims that is down to being played in the right position.
The 24-year-old managed just 13 goals in 63 appearances at Stamford Bridge, but has netted 18 in just 23 games since moving to Merseyside for £12million in January.
He told Sport magazine: “When I went to Bolton [on loan], I was able to show what I can do because I was playing as a centre-forward.
“At Chelsea, I never got the chance to do that, and I’ve got that opportunity here [at Liverpool]. I’m just playing the position that I enjoy playing in.
“My faith in God, my self-belief and the hard work I put in on the training field; they’ve all helped me become the player I am now, but I’d say the biggest difference is I’m back to my natural thoughts and I’ve got no clouded vision when I’m on the field. That’s probably the main thing that has changed.”
As well as his own self-belief, Sturridge also credits manager Brendan Rodgers with helping get his career back on track.
When asked if Rodgers was part of the reason for his move to Liverpool, he said: “It was, yeah, because I knew about him from when I was at Chelsea, and the players who were there spoke highly of him. He had tried to get me on loan when he was at Swansea, so I knew he rated me. He knows how I work.
“He knows what I need. I needed to be believed in, to play as a centre-forward at a club. I didn’t get that at Chelsea, and Brendan gave me the opportunity to do that here.
“We work well together, and it’s great to be part of his philosophy. He gets the most out of his players, and makes us want to win for him. He’s just very good at man-management as well as the tactics and team stuff.”
