#7 | Raheem Sterling - 2020/21 Performances

[Cityfan1977]

It was getting a bit tetchy again last night tbf. I'll try and move it all back into a separate thread though when I get a minute.

Thanks sorry about my ranting earlier I just love Sterling and I feel I owe him my support after I have found my self been way to critical if him a few times.

No worries mate, I've put the posts back now (apologies if I've missed any):

Sterling and the hate he gets

As soon as Sterling went down for the pen I knew what all of us would be reading in the media the next day. Pen or not it was a soft pen granted but I am 100 % that no other player in the world would be called diver for this from so many.

To get it back on topic - be interesting to see if Sterling plays from the right or the left tonight. He's been brilliant when he's right and Italy do have a weakness at left back.

Yeah, I'm still of the opinion that he plays better on the right. I know he's had his better goalscoring season on the left but I still feel like he's better overall there.

To be honest, I'm not particularly sold on Florenzi and I think Sterling will give any of the back four a hard time.

For sure. Chiellini and Bonucci are not the most mobile. If either of them follows Kane into midfield there will be gaps for Raz to run into.

I'm absolutely buzzing for this game now.

Di Lorenzo looked like giving a penalty away every time Doku ran at him in the Belgium game. I suspect Sterling will start on the left, looking to run across Di Lorenzo and in behind Bonucci who is the CB who will be drawn out by Kane, if the Spain match is anything to go by.

Im sure he will swap to the right when Grealish comes on after an hour.

Florenzi hasn't played a game since the first round when he was taken off at half time.

Di Lorenzo

Aye, that's the one.

Currently the subject is why was the thread from the main page merged with this one?

Think it's only fair to ask the question. Almost as if whilst the country is celebrating Sterling, here on Bluemoon the negativity of a tiny minority dictates conversation about him must be buried in this thread.

There has always been a question of WHY there is the negative reaction to Sterling by a tiny minority, it is constant, everlasting, and totally over the top. It seems to mirror the stereotypical media standpoint and cannot be totally football related. Therefore it needs open and frank discussion, rather than a head buried in the sand approach.
