He gave 6 passes straight to them, 2 others out of play, and was dispossessed of the ball 4 times.How many times he did lose the ball ?
It was certain that whenever he gets the ball, our attack will be over.
But he worked really hard tracking back and did well defensively.
What an enigma. All the goals he’s scored and yet, when you dissect his skillset and form fluctuations, he leaves lots of people scratching their heads.
If he has a small injury a couple of weeks rest might be a blessing in disguise. He looks like he needs a rest and we can get by with Foden, Jesus and Torres for a week or twoHe is guilty of lacking the higher standards in some of his skill set, but I think there’s a lot of superlatives thrown around when it comes to judging Sterling.
As soon as one of his attributes is called into question, such as first touch, it becomes that he has the “worst first touch ever” etc. So much so, that anything he does with his first touch that isn’t a bad one, will be completely ignored.
He did have a stinker the other week, however.
Yeah every now and again he does something that reminds you how much he's improved as a player since 2015.The technique on that free kick yesterday was something special.
No tin hat needed. For me, the most frustrating player we have.Tin hat
As good a talent as he can be......as a team i think we play better without him.
