Yep, keep Sterling for the Carabou cup.

I think Sterling could be an option vs Liverpool
Liverpool will press us very hard and attempt to stop us playing out from the back. Southampton with inferior players did this extremely well last week
What I noticed in the Southampton game is that when Eddie had the ball, our front three on the half way line (Torres, Gabby, Grealish) were ball watching and none attempted to run in behind to give Eddie a chance at a long pass
Sterling has his faults, but he'll do this and it would be a great option to beat the press

I think for all the media hype about Chelsea, deep down their players and manager know we're a better team.

Otherwise they wouldn't have resorted to negative tactics and constant shit housing.

We handled it brilliantly and I fucking love our players, manager and fans.

Does Tuchel go to bed with his hat on

Rodri absolute masterclass against the much lauded Chelsea midfield. Outstanding

Pretty impressive when you consider how many times Kante and Jorginho have won the balon d'Or this year.

If you saw him in a car park doing donuts in a stolen car, he wouldn't look out of place.

Sterling has never played well at Anfield with a crowd for City.

When was the last time we as a group performed really well at klanfield with supporters in?
The last time we played there with a crowd Sterling was our best player

Sterling doesn’t play well against the dippers when he is bang in form! Playing him in his current form will be like playing with ten men.

said a couple of weeks back i'd be happy coming out of the liverpool game on -6 points from top spot, to thnk its posible to come out +2 shows what a fantastic result that was yesterday

It’s sad, but I agree.
