He surprised me a fair bit to be honest, without really knowing what to expect. Still I surely wasn't expecting someone looking as good as Sturridge did mind, especially not as soon as he did.
I am still quietly holding my horses with regards to Golden Boot talk, Suarez replacement etc, as his history, as Der Alte also points out, has proved to be a bit of a roller coaster ride in terms of performances. However there's good evidence that Rodgers seems to get to him and makes him want to improve himself (as Hansern pointed out) so perhaps we have indeed got a real star on our hands.
Can he keep up performances, perhaps even improve further, we could actually be more covered in the goals apartment than anyone of us dares to dream post Suarez.
For what it's worth I really like his attitude. He's a confident lad.
