Sterling having one of those days. Very lackadaisical in every moment

His body language from the 1st minute didnt look great.
Yet last week he looked really at it

Tin hat time....

If Southampton offered a swap, Ward-Prowse for De Bruyne, I think I'd take it.

Hahaha that’s me done

Agueros shadow would have finished that chance.

We need to come out strong in the 2nd half, show why we are champions.

 

[BlueNirvana]

looks like Laporte actually leaned back out of the way of the shot

Sterlings shocking failed pass led to their goal. Thats why he gets picked out...AND he missed an absolute sitter in the box. The two biggest moments for us he directly contributed to in a negative way. Yes others have been poor but sterling has really stood out...in this game that is saying something.

I wasn't on about Sterling.

I was on about you folks slagging players off all the fucking time and not just Sterling

Let the slagging commence is what I said.

A forward losing the ball in their box doesn’t lead to a goal.

What you mean 35 games a season?

The stats make it hard to criticise Sterling. And I never have. Great player. I just always worry he could score in every round of the cup and then miss an absolute sitter in the last min of the final. And for me. If you're ruthless. You'd get rid. As much as I like him. It's those sitters. He just worries me. Should be 1-1 now.

He’s the last player you’d want to count on in the most important moment of the season, but over the course of the season we don’t get to be in that position without his contributions.

You have to take the rough with the smooth with him, otherwise he’s just the most frustrating player ever.

Love pep and I agree with everything he does and support him. But to me dias and stones are a lot better then laporte.
