Raheem Sterling - 2017/18 performances

Superb today.

 

[Gabriel]

Played well but could even have had a couple more. He needs to gamble and attack the back post more.

Another goal, another assist and another fine performance.

Gonna be really awkward when he gets shafted for YPOTY tonight.

Does he not get an assist for the penalty ?

Thought Sterling actually played the first to a Swansea defender who miscontrolled it into Silva's path.

I'd still call it an assist but would have to watch it again.

I think fantasy wise folk normally count it but even at that Jesus missed tbf.

No, it was a pass straight to Silva.

I thought it was really interesting that Pep played Sterling centrally today, with Bernardo on the right and Silva on the left.

I can genuinely say I didn't see that coming when I saw the team sheet, and yet he was brilliant. I think next season we're going to see a lot more games with him in the middle.

I take it the awards will be televised? Just had a look and couldn't see it anywhere.

Cheers, mate.

Thought that when I first saw it, but from one angle behind the goal it looked as if the Swansea player got his toe to it. Have to wait and see it again, which is no pain. :-)

For lurking dippers he has won the league and cup,getting away from you is the best thing he has ever done

 

[lancs blue]

Excellent again today, it's scandalous that he hasn't got YPOTY, consistent quality over the season should win these individual awards and he's been better than Leroy in that regard.

By far the best compilation I've seen of Sterling's season, well worth a watch.

 

[manlikepep]

He's been immense all season. If that finishing could be as good as Salah's he'll get a ballan dor. Gets around players better than Salah does and gets himself 4-5 chances to score a game.

Thanks for saving us this season Raheem, can't wait to watch you improve just like you have done this season. People get on him about how terrible his finishing is but its a massive improvement from last season.

Gary Neville Analysis: Can Sterling be as good as Henry/Ronaldo?

Pretty much a perfect summation by Neville

 

[decmancity]

Watching that video above, didn't realise just quite how much better his final ball and passing has got. He has picked up some central positions really well this season and is playing passes that KDB and Silva would be proud of. Real shame the world cup is this summer, another couple months with Pep would be much better.

Instead he will be off to Russia to be blamed for our inability to get out of the group and has the dinosaur Southgate trying to coach him.

I've little doubt that if Englad get eliminated before the semi's, it will somehow be Raheem's fault in the eyes of the 'fans' - can see him being booed next year because of it, I just hope he shuts them up by scoring shit loads and winning more trophies.
