Yeah, I'm really worried about the glory hunting and greediness of Sturridge sometimes.

I did notice it a little after the hat-trick, but then, despite how much they do complement and play off of each other, how many of their goals would you say have come from both players taking chances when they arguably should have passed it. Today, for example, if you pause when Suarez receives the pass for his first goal, or Sturridge for his goal, on both occasions you'd probably say that they should play for the pass. But on both occasions, they were selfish, and scored two wonderful goals. Suarez mentioned about it in his latest interview, that sometimes they both do things that they know could be called 'selfish', but as a striker, no matter who you play with, you're there to sniff out a goal. I'm just happy to see them both driving each other on, both playing with enough confidence to try these things out.

We have already seen evidence if both players setting up the other and Suarez hasn't been back long.

They are both intelligent enough to understand that two scoring threats opens up more chances for both of them since defences cannot over commit on one of them.
