Daniel Sturridge has said that Liverpool have been "working hard" as they made it three successive wins in the Premier League for the first time this season by beating West Ham United 2-0 this afternoon.
Sturridge made his long-awaited return from injury at Anfield and secured the points with a late strike, after Raheem Sterling had put Liverpool in front.
The striker admitted that he had found it difficult to watch on from the sidelines as Liverpool went through a rough patch earlier in the season.
He told reporters: "I have been watching on the sidelines and the lads have been playing really well but sometimes the results have not been going their way.
"But we have been working hard, and doing what the manager wants us to do."
The result leaves Liverpool seventh in the Premier League table, four points adrift of the top four.
