Statistics & graphics from Daniel Sturridge’s start to the season at Liverpool

You can’t really argue with Daniel Sturridge’s start to the season: he’s scored all of his side’s goals, and has produced decisive moments in all three of Liverpool’s games in 2013/14.
Very impressive – here are some bits and pieces from his year-to-date:
– Has started all three games.
– Has scored 3 goals.
– Is averaging 3.3 shots per game.
– Has completed 61 of his 81 attempted passes (75.3%).
– Has lost all 7 of his aerial duels.
– Has created 1 goal-scoring opportunity for his side.
– Is completed 2 successful dribbles per game.
– Is fouled twice per game, second-most at Liverpool (Philippe Coutinho – 3).
– Is dispossessed on average 4 times per game, more than any other Liverpool player.
– Has completed 4 of 6 attempted long balls.
– His heat-map from the Manchester United game (his last appearance):
