Like i said, he has great potential and yes he is only 20 years old and i would like him at City, but i very much doubt he will be as good as Reus at 25. Thats just the way i see it.
Reus is a superstar, Sterling is just potential at the moment, so the first person i would be picking up the phone for is Marco Reus.
Total guesswork though. How anyone can say how good a player will be in 5 years is speculation. Some of the worlds best players were nowhere at 20, some 20 year olds tagged as the next big thing never materialised that way.
Sterling would be a gamble but a calculated one. If you look at other "golden boy" winners probably 7 or 8 out of 10 have gone on to be top class footballers and some the worlds best. Not bad odds.
