NEW DELHI: Former Liverpool and Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge has revealed the inspiration behind his iconic arm-waving goal celebration dance.
The former England forward's celebration was a regular sight at Anfield as he scored 50 Premier League goals for the Reds, helping them go close to the title in 2013-14.
"It's 'The Sturridge dance'. It's not 'The Wave' which FIFA called it, it's not the name. It's 'The Sturridge dance' so let's get that straight and fine and dandy," he said on his YouTube channel.
The 30-year-old explained the story behind the origin of his on-field celebration which started at his apartment.
"Hanging out with my cousins and my friends in my apartment. There was some house music playing, filming us, a couple of drinks flowing, you know," Sturridge said.
"I literally just started doing that move. It wasn't as smooth, it wasn't as clean but I was a little bit tipsy and just decided to start moving that way," he added.
Sturridge said that at first it looked 'hilarious' and later on he decided to do it whenever he scored a goal.
"I think the very first time I did the dance, we played Man United in the Carling Cup at Stamford Bridge when I was playing for Chelsea.
That was the first time I brought the dance out. Mind you, it's evolved a lot since then. It wasn't as smooth or as clean as it is now," he said.
Sturridge is currently without a club after seeing his contract at Turkish side Trabzonspor cancelled.

Here is his instruction on how to repeat - Red in the margin - Blogs Red in the margin
Blog
“Hey buddy, look at me. Do like me!"
The whole world is sitting at home without football because of the coronavirus. And only Daniel Sturridge sits at home due to the fact that he was suspended from football for six months for betting - in 2018, the striker advised his family to bet on his transfer to Sevilla or Milan. As it turned out, this was bad advice, but Sturridge was punished anyway.
Dan, after being banned, terminated his contract with Trabzonspor of his own free will - he says that he did not want to receive a salary and not play. But now Sturridge has plenty of time to entertain himself and entertain others.
He launched a YouTube channel, masters tiktok, just posts on instagram. It came to the main creation in the life of Sturridge - his famous dance after the goals. The channel released a video in which the former Liverpool striker told how he came up with these movements.
The final Sturridge dance.

This is Daniel Sturridge, Dee Stugee Dee, Dee Studge - call it what you will. Everyone asked me to talk about the "Sturridge dance" - it is called that even in FIFA.
Now there will be a story of appearance. I hung out at my cousin's house, music was playing, we had a couple of drinks, you know. And I don't know what happened - I just started doing this movement. It was not so pretty, not so neat. But like I said, I was a little tipsy.
When I finished moving, we all thought it was wildly funny. And then I said that I would repeat it when I scored. The first time I danced was when I played for Chelsea against Man United in the League Cup. But since then, the movements have evolved - now they are smooth and clean.
By the way, that match between Chelsea and Manchester United happened in October 2012.
The Londoners (led by Roberto Di Matteo) won 5-4 in extra time with Dan scoring the fourth in the 97th minute. A couple of months later he left for Liverpool.
We checked and Dan is a bit wrong. For the first time, the celebration was lit up a few days before the match with Manchester United. Chelsea bombed Tottenham 4-2 away, and Dan himself scored in the 91st minute. And he danced next to a smiling Lampard.
Since then, many have tried to repeat the dance, but few have succeeded:

Especially for colleagues and fans, Sturridge made detailed instructions on how to do the "Sturridge dance" correctly. Remember:
1.
Feet shoulder width apart.
2. We make a movement with our hands - almost like a wave. One hand up, the other down;
3. Move your body slightly following your hands;
4. The most important thing is the legs. Dan says that without legs is generally wrong. Move your feet and knees towards your raised arm.
And further variations are possible - Sturridge himself will show.
Now you know how to do the Sturridge celebration when you play football. Of course, after the quarantine is over.

England's best dancer is back in business. Look how cool he is
18.08.2018 14:15
- England.
Premier League - Europe
- Liverpool
- West Bromwich
- Sturridge Daniel
Reloading a new level.
Why do we love Sturridge?
When all of England was praying for Sturridge, Kane was just beginning his ascent.
His move to Liverpool in the middle of the 2012/2013 season was widely discussed for a reason. The guy immediately found his place at the start, and a year later, together with Suarez, he formed the most scoring duet of that season. Liverpool then quite a bit fell short of the gold medals in the Premier League, and Dani himself shipped 22 goals.
His manner: athletic movements, dribbling at speed, cannon punch, light English style. The era of Jurgen Klopp at Liverpool also began not without Sturridge. In the 2016 Europa League final, Dani scored a cool goal, but his team lost. That ball can still be considered one of Sturridge's most beautiful goals for Liverpool.
In addition to moving around the field in style, Daniel is a great dancer. He has signature moves that the striker performs after every goal scored. The performance lasts a few seconds, but it turns on Liverpool fans incredibly and wildly annoys rival fans.
The history of movements dates back to 2004. Then the Englishman, as part of the Manchester City youth team, performed at the youth tournament, where he shipped a goal against Barcelona. The child was in wild ecstasy and could not restrain his emotions. It was then that the little guy performed the dance for the first time. It has since become his hallmark.
Why does he piss everyone off?
Sturridge's main disadvantage is endless injuries. The history of diseases here is even too voluminous. His biggest concern was his hamstring and ankle. At times, due to injuries, he missed seven months in total per season. Regular several weeks of the infirmary every season have already entered the norm. The medical staff does not find the cause, but weak ligaments may be the culprit.
Something went wrong already in the first season for Liverpool. Then his injuries were perceived as casual, but after the “silver” season, the player began to break down regularly. This winter, Liverpool tried to fuse Sturridge.
Milan and Sevilla were negotiating his lease, Inter wanted to buy a football player, but the British asked for 30 million euros. By the way, in the last two seasons of the Premier League, he scored only 5 goals.
As a result, the striker was left in England and sent to West Brom for six months. In the debut game, he was injured in the 4th minute. As a result, during the spring, Dani played only six matches, all to no avail and to no avail. And here his weakness on the field played a role. Read the English forums of Liverpool fans - most are unhappy with the fact that Sturridge is afraid to go to the selection, and in recent years he has even begun to act straight ahead - just to part with the ball as soon as possible. No initiative or creativity.
How is he now?
You won't believe it, but it's even too cool! Dani returned from a mediocre loan and then signed a new contract with Liverpool. In the final hours of the transfer window, the club dumped Ings to Southampton for €22m.
Now Klopp is finally giving Sturridge a chance, who has played at a high level in all seven summer matches. “In all my time here, Sturridge is in the best shape right now. He went through all the pre-season training, ”Klopp says about him. It was impossible to imagine such words six months ago.
Sturridge fits into the Liverpool manager's plan. Liverpool play in a 4-3-2-1 formation, where Firmino plays the center forward, and if necessary, the team is rebuilt to 4-4-2. Many mistakenly assume that Jurgen needs Sturridge as a sub-hitter in a two-up setup. During the pre-season, the German played Daniel in both scenarios, which indicates a serious role for the Englishman. His task is the real competition for Firmino for a place at the base.
In all schemes, Sturridge plays more of a pull than a clean nine. This allowed him to feel a little more confident, because he began to receive the ball more often.
