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.

Trump attacks Clinton as victories set stage for brutal election

Battle lines appear drawn for general election as Republican frontrunner says Democrat has nothing going for her except ‘the woman’s card’ Donald Trump set the stage for a brutal battle with Hillary Clinton, claiming she is only in contention for the presidency because she is a woman, as both candidates scored dominant victories in Tuesday night’s primary elections. The Republican frontrunner attacked Clinton as weak and crooked and warned that she would be a “horrible president” as he sought to frame the fight for the White House. Speaking at Trump Tower in New York, he said witheringly: “I think the only card she has is the woman’s card. She’s got nothing else going. And frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5% of the vote. The only thing she’s got going is the woman’s card, and the beautiful thing is women don’t like her, OK?” Mary Pat Christie, the wife of former Republican candidate Chris Christie, who was standing behind Trump as he mocked Clinton, a...

Facebook is going to start showing you pieces people actually read

Another algorithm change has been announced by the social network, focused on enhancing reading time Facebook is changing its algorithm yet again, and this time it wants to show you more things that you’ll actually spend time reading or watching. The social network looks at a wealth of data when deciding which posts you actually see on News Feed, but until now it hasn’t cared too much about what you actually do when you click away from Facebook. It says that’s going to change. “We’re learning that the time people choose to spend reading or watching content they clicked on from News Feed is an important signal that the story was interesting to them,” said software engineer Moshe Blank and research scientist Jie Xu in a post on the company’s website . As a result, the site will now attempt to pick links which have a higher reading time. But don’t think that you’ll have a News Feed filled with 30,000 word New Yorker epics. “We will also be looking at the time spent within a threshol...
