I'm sorry to disagree with you here, but I don't think perception has anything to do with this. The most objective stat I think is just the numbers of goals scored per season:u
It's as illustrative as you want to perceive it to be.
2015-16: 9 in EPL + UCL
2014-15: 7 in EPL + UCL + UEL
2013-14: 9 in EPL
You can hardly call someone a prolyfic goalscorer with those kind of stats. And if his conversion rate is okay (which I haven't checked but I believe your word, even if there haven't really been enough matches in 2016-17 to really draw conclusion from this), then it still means that he doesn't shoot enough or come into shooting positions enough, as Domalino pointed out.
Either way, and that was the whole point, Sterling doesn't supply much firepower.
