With all due respect and forgiving me if I’m wrong , you’ve not got a a crack at writing your name in the history books and becoming a nations hero..
all I can think of is his family must be in a lot of trauma for him to give up a shot at reaching the very top of a hard fought career which is a shame ..
I’ll wish him and his family all the very best and hope that they can put the trauma behind them and hope Phil gets to write his name up there instead..

So what it's still his family.

Ever heard the phrase “shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted?”

A soldier on duty abroad wouldn’t be allowed home because of a break in, there’s got to be a level of professionalism which appears lacking with Raz. He could have brought his family to Qatar, other players have their loved ones with them.

Not saying he was wrong but he’s missed two City parade due to “family matters”.

Which proves that his family is more important to him

Indeed. Criminals are as sophisticated and as techie-aware as the police - maybe significantly so. The police are hindered in the respect that they have rules to obey. Recognising people's rights etc. But the criminals do not have such limitations: if their morals allow it they will do it.

In the old days you could tell a villain by their styling, clothing, mannerisms: nowadays most of them will be in front of a computer somewhere, trying to gain access to your bank account.

There are many things far more important than football and family safety would be at the top for me.

Who are the people throwing stones at him and what is their agenda if it’s very clear?
I’m happy that it seems his family are safe and weren’t in the house when the robbery took place. I’m sure they are all a bit shook up because being burgled is an awful experience.
He was right to fly home, and he would be right to rejoin the squad again.

Hammocity , doesnt rate him so is using this to be snide

If he wants to go back he will but if he choses to stay with his family he shouldnt be ragged for it

Most people’s families are the most important thing in their life, no arguing about that but what could Sterling do by going home? Should have got professional security in and carried out his chance of winning the Trophy. From what I can gather his family weren’t at home and no one was hurt.

yeh, why not spend on a security guard for the house whilst your away for a few weeks ? would cost nothing for him

just to add, got nothing against him flying back for his family

Can't see the need for any of that tbh.

He's left the club (relatively amicably) and funded our new signings, only proper Berties would still hold a grudge.

Big difference if someone is ill, eg your wife’s father, could be the beginning of the end. A break in is just that and unlikely to be repeated any time soon especially if Sterling had paid for private security until the end of the tournament.

I’ve had two break in’s, once whilst we were in, the second after a a guy I knew well was stabbed to death during a botched robbery. It’s shit but I still carried on with work and my life. No one should allow the threat of crime rule their live, take as many precautions as your finances and circumstances allow but ultimately there’s fuck all you can do if a criminal targets you.

You stabbed him to death, on the 2nd and botched robbery ?
You did well to carry on regardless, fair play.

Lost his place at City....left.

Lost his place with England....left.

Unavailable for 2 trophy parades in consecutive seasons.

Seems to have a lot going on in his life. No wonder he can't concentrate and score 1 on 1s

Chelsea fans are certainly not impressed with him.
 
Why are people upset he chose his family over a game played for entertainment? Why are people talking about how he should behave regarding his own partner and children? He does not owe any of you an explanation and could decide not to play if he does not want to play.

Manage your lives and your relationships however you want to. That is what annoys me about this new entitled society where strangers think they have some right to judge people simply because they watch them on TV or see them on social media.

If he stayed next time they lose a game you would have another reason to moan at him. So this has nothing to do with his actions but all your hatred and bitterness.

Most of you were even saying he shouldn’t be in the team before all this so I see through the fake outrage.

He leaves me with the same feeling tbh. I think its why he's a bit disliked, with Sterling its always about Sterlings career. No emotional attachment to anything, just cold hard careerism, I'm not even sure he enjoys his football that much. Though I do think he'll look back on his career and cherish the time at City.

Honest assessment, I'm not a hater or joining in with any pile on against him. He's entitled to his success because hes damn well made it happen. Just leaves people a little cold.

He just left the biggest event in his career to take care of his family.

Your argument doesn't hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.
