Sterling’s contract - three year extension confirmed

Sterling will continue to score, of that I have no doubt. My point is that with his experience at the top level, he should not be missing the sitters he does. Quoting Salah is not proving anything wrt Sterling.

Sitters like the one Salah missed at the Etihad last year?

But I seem to remember you were saying citing his vast experience in the league as a reason he'd never improve 18 months ago...and then he did.

You have mistaken my post then. He has improved no doubt, but not to the extent he has eradicated missing sitters (last season obviously) and I personally dont think he will now

I think it's really obvious what he has to do with it.

Salah misses sitters, and he's exactly the kind of goalscorer that Sterling can become, where no one gives a shit about his missed sitters because they're counting the 44 goals he did score. No one thinks Sterling will ever reach the point where he never misses an easy chance, but because of his movement and positioning, he can become the kind of player who scores so many that those missed chances are meaningless.

The two have very obvious parallels, except Sterling has had his first 20+ goal season at 22/23 and Salah was 25/26 years old.
 
Sterling missed 12 from 21 Big Chances from open play in the league last season
Jesus missed 13 from 23
Aguero missed 13 from 21

Salah missed 23 from 39
Kane missed 18 from 31
 
salah missed a sitter against Leicester last Saturday they all do its just sterling seems to get loads of shit for it
 
Its hard for the ordinary football fan to get their head around how a professional footballer can at times look so akward in front of goal. However I think raheem may have just turned the corner, he seems to be striking the ball more cleanly this season, putting his laces through it in a manner of speaking. I may yet be converted.
