Player Topic: Raheem Sterling (2015/16)

[Silva2021]

Really happy he scored and an important goal not just the fourth in a 4-0 win.

Has played well and freshened up the team but I think there is still a lot more to come from him.

Must be feeling pretty happy he made the move!!

A very encouraging start to his City career

 

[Silva2021]

I always thought it was strange how the media made out that him moving to City would be bad for his career when everything pointed to the opposite.

1. Plays in a regular position unlike Liverpool.
2. Has a chance to win trophies unlike Liverpool
3. Earns more money than at Liverpool
4. Has an experienced manager used to working with world class players like Ronaldo and Aguero unlike at Liverpool
5. Has world class players like Yaya/Silva/Aguero to learn from and improve unlike at Liverpool
6. Doesn't have to carry the team and be burnt out unlike Liverpool.

From an English perspective it's the best move he could have made.

Every point a correct one!!

Still be pundits saying he should not have moved!!

Wait till he gets rested or we have a change of tactics for a big European game and he is on the bench they will all be out in force!!

I like his celebration, esp. now that it's not against us!

Once the new tv money kicks in next year what we have paid for Stirling and KDB will seem not only average but very good business.Let's face it, the new deal was only ever going to mean more for players, agents and selling clubs - the tickets and pies were never going to get cheaper. If we carry on with 4,2,3,1 i hope Raheem gets to play as a striker if Kun needs a rest or is injured. Obviously if Bony comes good that would be a win but at present if Raheem carries on as he is I'd like to see him get the chance.

Was that a gas mask when he put his hand over his face?

Cracking buy, I hope some of the pre-signing doubters on here are suitably impressed.

 

[bumbleblue]

Quite disappointed by that, was one of the attributes I was most looking forward to, especially in tight European games.

Funny you should say that @kenzie115,I was just hoping he was saving that err aspect of his game for the CL

 

[VOOMER]

This player will become one of the greatest players this country will have ever produced.

Maybe it's a 'face hugger' imitation?

Like... he's an Alien?!

His pace and versatility was always something that was going to add to our team, happy that it's had such a big effect so early.

Most impressed, and surprised, by the fact that he is so much better defensively than I thought he would be - always notice him tracking back, blocking passes or trying to make tackles and win the ball back, which is leading to Kolarov looking a far better defender than seemed possible. If he can keep focused and keep this work rate up he's going to have a fantastic season for us.
