Brighton (H) Post Match Thread

today was just right given all else going on the coming week. don’t think it gets much better than when sane and sterling are in full flight...it creates so many problems for opposition and tires them...and makes us way more lethal when the ball’s turned over. Love having them first 60 mins, grab some goals, and then bring in some of the others to change the pace and the nature of the challenge. But as much as anything I think sane and sterling running around early gets our midfield focused and hungry to attack (and fuels aguero, too). Sometimes I feel like when Bernardo or mahrez or someone else is on the wings it gets into that lullaby mode where bad things can happen, and teams aren’t punished sufficiently with the counter going the other way. And obv it’s only better when kev is there.

Otherwise, Sterling’s so good. Think he’s nearly as valuable as anyone in the league right now. Crazy commentators still act like he’s proving doubters wrong over time. The doubters are just idiots and have been for a really long time. They shouldn’t be legitimized.

So true. He’s one of the best players we have - taking into account his age. Cost a fortune to replace. Hope he sorts out contract
 
Sane is a joy to watch. Such a graceful athelete and so talented
Sane has it all.
A year younger than Raheem with more potential.

However. Sterling has matured more than anyone in the league IMO.
He seems to take on board from Pep, year on year, exactly what he needs to and not just is scoring, he just makes the right decision more often than not.

Now add that to Sane’s potential.
Think where he can go.

I didn't think he had a great game today, he did some good things don't get me wrong, including one double up with Zinchenko as they threatened an attack, and between them they won the ball back, but sometimes he's lazy, and doesn't put enough effort in to get the ball when he has to chase it going forward, several times today he just shrugged at balls a few yards ahead that he could have got to.

I still love watching him. Although I agree he is far from the finished article. It's just that I can't wait until he is.

You need to head straight to the Sterlings Contract thread
