World Cup 2014: Wayne Rooney wants to be England's Luis Suarez
Wayne Rooney hopes to strike up a partnership with Daniel Sturridge
that emulates his England colleague's club success with Luis Suarez.
Rooney believes
Suarez and Sturridge were the best front pair in the Premier League last season
as they fired Liverpool into title contention.
Now he wants to play the Uruguayan's role with Sturridge for England.
"It's easier at a club but we have had time to work on stuff. Hopefully we'll see the benefits of that," said Rooney.
"Suarez and Sturridge have certainly been the best two front men in the Premier League this season.
"You try to talk. Even in training you try and communicate and get that way of playing."
Between them, the Liverpool duo scored 48 times last season. Sturridge found the net on 24 occasions in all competitions, by far the 24-year-old's most prolific campaign.
