That is the dumbest definition of world class I've ever heard.

There's only 11 world class players? What if the 2 best goalkeepers that ever played the game were both around at the same time? Only 1 is world class?
Who knows? There’s no definition and it’s subjective.

But that’s not even important.

Raz has become predictable on the left and he’s lost energy to his play (which is probably coupled with a lack of space provided to him that a decent attacking left back should bring).

When he’s on the right he is dangerous on both his right and left foot. He just doesn’t have the same level of quality with his left foot on the left wing. He’s not attacking the full backs he’s playing against round the outside enough and if he does he doesn’t even trust his left foot enough and is checking back and passing backwards. So that leaves most of his game with him cutting inside and he’s not got the quality to overcome teams now just doubling up on him.

He was below par against Brighton, and has been poor against Norwich, Everton and Wolves.

Who are the 11 world class players?

Back to being shit then .
 
And who are they, right now.
Good question. Mine.

salah aguero messi
kdb kante modric
robertson van dijk koulibaly ramos
eddie

Raheem is right there though. Side note, there currently aren't very many world class midfielders out there. Step up phil foden, we truly do have the most talent at that position by some distance.

His limitations as a player are still there and he’s not as good as we think he is. In times of team injuries, the best players take the game over and lead the team. Instead, Sterling has shrunk as a player without the best midfield in the world behind him.

Still a long way to go before this lad is world class.

Doesn’t help that he’s not a left winger at all for me. He’s been great there when he’s had Fernandinho/de Bruyne/David/Bernardo playing in centre mid behind him but we’ve only had one, the odd time two, of these players at any one time in centre mid this season and Sterling has not risen to the fore and lead this team.
FFS mate,do you rate any players?

Modric isnt even the 3rd best midfielder at Real Madrid.
