Sorry, meant to space it out better, formation would be a 3, 5, 2 with Lallana on the left and Sterling in the hole behind the front two. Could also be seen as a 3, 4, 3, with Sturridge through the centre and Balo and Sterling either side. Only problem is Balo's movement, but playing with Sturridge may bring some more out of him. Either way, this is a game he could build his confidence.
don't use spaces on here mate, use ----- it took me a while to figure out
