Raheem Sterling - 2016/17 performances

[kaz7]

Fair enough Karen but Pellegrini would never have signed him given the choice.

We'll never know but even if he didn't it was his job to coach him properly and use his talents not set him back a year,thank god for pep

There's a square peg Manuel, go stick in that round hole there.

When are people going to realise that Pellegrini was merely holding the fort by the time his last season came around and was hamstrung as a result?

Not sure they do tbh.

Anyhoo, onwards and upwards.

 

[RandomJ]

Barca were scared shitless of him. Great assist and should have had a penalty if not for the bent ref. Keeps impressing in Europe.

 

[Chris in London]

Really wish he'd taken that shot on in the second half. Not because it made a difference to the result - it didn't - but because Raheem deserved a goal.

Just hit it first time Raz, aaaargh!! Another very good performance from him.

 

[kaz7]

The boy did good,robbed of a pen

 

[Dazzle84]

Superb again from him and thrilled he's shoving it down the throats of all the media twats who gave him such a hard time last year

 

[blueinsa]

Ran the full back ragged all night and won us a penalty despite what that fucker of a ref thinks.

Should have scored but fuck it, we won and it matters not.

Always said that his fee will seem like peanuts and nights like tonight shows just that imo.

 

[abu13]

All of a sudden there is no mention of the fee is there, he is turning in excellent performaces and is a key player for us now.

 

[ws01]

Only thing he's missing now is more goals.

Once he sorts that out, he's world class.

Yeah I just hope that comes to raheem, some players just never develop that ability (silva).

 

[blue wang]

That assist. Top class.

Great game..the barca lb was shitting weetbix every time sterling had a go.

Needs to get that little bit of extra composure to develop into a ruthless finisher. If anybody can get it out of him its Pep.

Great season so far. Every game he is up for it.

 

[mosssideblue]

Great all round performance but needs to know when to pull the trigger.

 

[fredmont]

Great all round performance but needs to know when to pull the trigger.

I'm sure he knows, just hasn't got the confidence to do it regularly. Not unlike Silva.

 

[Ed68]

Thought he has been excellent recently.

Love the crap reporting on IB Times...

Despite previously suggesting the move to City was motivated by wanting to improve as a player, Sterling has now suggested the chance to play alongside big-name players also played a role.
​

Yeah, those 2 are in no way connected!

 

[City_Sean]

Digne and Umtiti were terrified every time Raheem got on the ball. What a player we have on our hands here folks. He's world class

In the new interview the reason he says he wants to play amongst big names is because they help you improve!

Hatchet job.

Listened to a guy named Angus- a journo reviewing papers on Talk Sport at 5:30 yesterday morning. Opened up with comments about how Sterlings performance was gash, missed a sitter, was out of his depth and got hooked off because Pep had lost patience with him!!!!!!! Could not believe my ears. Who is this guy?
