Klopp: Sturridge’s barren period can be ‘a good moment’




England international is#yet to a score in the Premier League this season and cut a frustrated figure in a Liverpool's#goalless draw with to Manchester United at Anfield on#Monday Night Football.





Sturridge#touched the ball just a once in the opposition box#and did not have to shot at goal before being replaced on the hour#mark.

Reports#in the national press have a suggested Sturridge could be#dropped for Liverpool's home match against#West Bromwich Albion on Saturday, So with Adam Lallana and#Georginio Wijnaldum pushing for recalls.

But#Klopp has given him a backing to the 27-year-old, highlighting how#prolific goalscorers like a Robert Lewandowski and#Gerd Muller also went through dry periods in front#of goal.

This#moment his a good moment for Dan. It is not easy. Most of his time in his a life, football has been so easy because he is a so skilled, the Liverpool manager said.

So#the right moment, easy goal, simple#goal. Every player struggles with this or#this. Little problem here, a little problem there.

We#had a game against to Manchester#United and, yes, it was not easy for#him. We didn't play well, he didn't play with 100#percent confidence.

And#I think it is a very useful moment in his#a career. A big name: [Robert]#Lewandowski. There were times when#he didn't score.

So#Gerd Muller. There were games#he didn't a score. I still can't believe it. You look back on his career and he scored 600 times but there#were moments when he didn't score.

US unions plan attack on Donald Trump in attempt to derail presidential bid

Concerned labor group leaders are organizing ad campaigns and phone banks as Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs draws in union voters The prospect of a Donald Trump nomination has labor leaders scrambling to hold the line as the Republican frontrunner’s appeal to disaffected working-class voters threatens to upset the traditional political calculus. The majority of America’s almost 15 million unionized workers can be usually be relied upon to back the Democratic candidate in a presidential year, but leaders are concerned by Trump’s populist message on trade and jobs – and his insistence that union workers are just one of many groups on a long list of those he claims “love” him.

North Carolina's 'bathroom bill' battle embarrasses residents on both sides | TheNews Linzer

The escalating fight over LGBT rights has turned the historically sophisticated, inclusive southern state into a battleground of intolerance In the family of southern states, North Carolina has long been the cousin who made it. It enjoyed excellent universities, world-class industries, smooth roads and political stability. A whole class of people arose called “halfbacks”: people who retired from the north-east states to Florida, only to realize North Carolina was better and moved halfway back. Now, with the state squaring off against the federal government about who can use which bathrooms, the state finds itself at the pointy end of jokes, and lumped in with more strident southern states like Mississippi and – most bitterly – South Carolina. It’s unfamiliar for North Carolinians. It’s uncomfortable. And many are asking: how did we get here? How did the high-achieving, well-educated cousin end up with a black eye and busted knuckles, reeling over a public toilet? Continue reading....

Ali al-Amin’s claim comes as Channel Nine defends involvement in ‘story profoundly in public interest’ The estranged husband of Brisbane woman Sally Faulkner says he took their two children to  Lebanon  because he “just wasn’t OK” with her new partner being prominent in their lives. Ali al-Amin has been speaking to  Australian media  as Channel Nine explicitly defended its involvement in “a story that not only is profoundly in the public interest but also one the public is interested in”. Nine also announced it would fully investigate how four of its staff came to be arrested in Beirut, charged with kidnapping and finally released on Wednesday,  apparently in exchange for compensation . Amin claimed on the Kyle and Jackie O Kiis radio show on Thursday that he decided to take the former couple’s two children, 5-year-old Lahela and Noah, 3, after he “saw a few things happening in regards to Sal’s parenting or relationships”.
