The picture of Sterling had been removed.

Just looked on Telegraph on two different devices. The story is there but no Raz.

Sterling should sue the Telegraph

Sterling should sue the Telegraph

I’m not sure on what grounds he could sue as it’s a fact he went to the school but whenever there’s any bad news associated with the dippers the papers seem to manage to stick a picture of raz in there

And that's the point I would be trying to make.
He has nothing to do with this at all, I assume, and so it would seem they are trying to tie him in with it, however genius therefore tarnishing his reputation. The article should have had a photo of the school if it needed one.

Yeah totally get your point probably a strongly worded letter from his lawyers rather than going for the throat and suing tho

Just googled it and the article is still there with a pic of raz

I will try and find it, last time I tried I couldn't (but I am thick) the problem as i understand it is the article is about current liverpool youngsters but the picture imples Raz is one of the guilty party. That is just wrong and disgraceful journalism.

Typical media persecution. Raz is the go-to scapegoat. Lazy journo's just using him to generate clicks as they know many fans don't like him. It certainly gets the Dippers fans onboard.

I don’t even think it’s that. Headlines generate clicks, pictures won’t unless the picture itself is on the homepage and not just a picture that accompanies the story when you have already clicked the link. I haven’t seen this picture on the homepage though I might have just missed it.

You are right. The innuendo is that Raheem is at least partly responsible for the antisocial behaviour referred to in the article. Since he isn’t, it’s libellous.

I would have thought the 'newspaper' would have taken the caution of showing a photo of the school or the club and not a person, who may or may not be involved.
