We have nobody you’d put money on to score in a one on one situation like that.
He should have picked the pass to Mahrez.

Sergio

Another 1:1 missed but nice run by Sterling to get free

 

[HelloCity]

Sterling needs to be sold and replaced. I was a big mahrez doubter but I’d keep him over sterling right now. That was so selfish and he’s been so poor this year

I’d prefer you leave.

 

[GornikDaze]

Sterling misses = he’s shit sell him
Sterling scores = best player in the league

Repeat

 

[Beanhead]

Sterling is dog shit.

Not really.. he makes his own goals and misses.

He generally finds himself in these positions for good reason. His movement.

His take on started the first goal and he scored the second.

 

[oddfellows]

Squares it to ffs and its game set and match.

Should always go through the keepers legs as they spread themselves, nutmeg if you like.

If sterling was in a 1 on none , my money would be on none.

The Matchday forum is such a joy to behold. The world would be a poorer place without it.

 

[KCblue]

Ilkay has been absolutely bossing it out there tonight

No doubt the Dog hasn't played better for City than he is at the moment but I'd be interested to see whether he's played better than this at anytime in his career. He's really stepped up a couple of gears for me

He was monstrous is his CDM run during the 18? game winning streak in the 98 point season.

 

[remember arthur mann]

Sterling's a bit of a ......

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Pep is revolutionising something totally new in football. Most of the time in possession it is a back 3, yes. But actually in the very deep build up on our 18 yard line it is a back 4 and Ederson is the right sided centre back and Dias goes left. Only City do that with their keeper as far as I know.

 

[I'm Blue]

Good ball that from Mahrez, shame no one gambled.

 

[mat]

If Raz could score one on ones he'd be up there with Messi.

 

[wattle]

Another 1:1 missed but nice run by Sterling to get free

And great save to be fair

 

[Ban-jani]

Genuinely think Sterling must be one of the best in world football at getting in positions to create chances for himself but is very poor at finishing them.

Which means he still scores loads but could score a lot more.

Think he just need to accept this is him.

2nd most goal involvements in the squad this season.

Not bad!

 

[Dr Jacoby]

FFS and FFS doing well.

 

[WestGorton]

Pope is England's number one.

 

[mccity]

Liquid football almost.

 

[ctwrd]

Sterling defenders are out in full force tonight.

we can upgrade on him. Simple as.

it’s ok to admit that we can do better
