(Reuters) - Juergen Klopp has dismissed suggestions that Daniel Sturridge is frustrated with the role he's being asked to play at Liverpool and believes the forward is intelligent enough to be a key figure in his flexible tactical approach.

Sturridge featured on the right side last weekend as Liverpool were defeated 2-0 by Burnley in the Premier League, and was used in a similar capacity in the 5-0 victory over Burton Albion in the League Cup on Tuesday.
