The Englishman is expected to be out for atleast three weeks which is a major problem for Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers. This might not be a big problem for England but its certainly a big deal for Liverpool.

Sturridge is expected to miss next three games which are against Aston Villa, West Ham and a derby game against Everton. 
The 24-year-old might make a return before the derby but still its unsure and a headache for Brendan Rodgers. Mario Balotelli is the likely one to continue his starting place and shine in the absence of Sturridge, while Rickie Lambert is also the man in intentions who might possibly start along with the Italian.

England who will face Switzerland tomorrow in the European Cup qualifying round will have to start either Lambert of Arsenal new boy Danny Welbeck inplace of Sturridge.

Former English footballer Matt Le Tissier believes that Lambert could be the right man to replace his teammate.

The Group E includes England, Switzerland, Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania and San Marino.

Wayne Rooney and Chelsea’s Gary Cahill believes that Switzerland game will be the toughest one as compared to others and a win will give them a great boost.

While England boss Roy Hodgson told on tomorrow’s game: “This is the first match of qualifying. We are not preparing for a World Cup final.”

“We want to get off to a good start. We want to play well, we want to win but if we win 3-0 that still doesn't mean to say we're going to win the Euros in 2016.”

Who should start in the absence of Sturrigde?
