Just watched the inside city thing on sterling. He seems like a top bloke.

For anyone who hasn't seen it.

He looks like a decent young man. I liked the bit with the kids, how hard did he boot the ball at the photographer? The little kids just rolled their balls towards him - Raheem gave his a bit more gusto and had a giggle about it.

His expression when he stepped on the green screen thingy. :-)

Yep, seems like a really sound bloke - fuck what the media and the Scousers think...he's going to love being a Blue :-)

I have thought he's been proper overrated which hasn't helped. He's good, but not as good as the media would have us believe over the last few years. So when he's been playing for a club i bloody hate, it's been one of them things where i've gone out to look at every single fault in his game and probably through bias said things like "look at that, he can't finish for shit!" after five one-on-ones at Old Trafford last year, just to make a point. And i've commented in match threads on the amount of times he loses where he is on the pitch, head down, nice few step overs and then runs the ball out of play trying to go round the full back. But we all do the same with Rooney too and it's all just been part of my mocking of him.

I also think his girly run is ridiculous too, so was his hair a little while ago too, so is the Rio Ferdinand-esque faux hard man look on his face, also didn't like the way he threw a dig at that Swansea player last season and got away with it.

But as i've said, just gonna try and like him. I don't want to not like a City player (although i never liked Elano neither, proper weasel faced fucker he was!). But it didn't take long with Tevez (although i never disliked Tevez before he signed for us).

But i hope this time next month he has me singing his name!

The kid is 20. 20. To put his performance level into context... the only players with better stats than him at the same age were Messi, Hazard and Robben.

Its not out of the realm of possibility that in 3-6 years he could be the best player in the world. Messi and Ronaldo will both be in their 30's by that point.

Raheem will become smarter on the pitch and can work on his finishing.

Our club played a blunder in getting him now as he will get the right coaching, be with the right players to get him from very good to great to world class.

Glad to see him looking a bit happier and relaxed. Looked very shaken when he was having his pic taken with Txiki IMO. I'm sure he'll settle right in when he meets the rest of the team on tour, and gets over the traumatic experience of playing for liverpool for a few years!
 
Some rather blurry pics of him before his first training session
