Raheem Sterling (30)

Pathetic that we even brought him to the club in the first place. Worse output than Willian.

But we run a charity for Chelsea so it’s to be expected.

God it was a free loan replacing Nelson who we wanted to put in the shop window.

Wasn’t pathetic at all, his performances have largely been but the fact we didn’t actually sign a winger or forward was the problem not the sterling / Nelson trade.

Feels like he blew his chance. Merino secured a starting spot up top with this performance and that also makes Tierney a more viable option out wide.
I guess he can warm the bench for Nwaneri now.
I do feel he’s far better on the right so it may end up fine.

Nah it was pretty pathetic. The board just trying to get fans excited by a BS deadline day move because they didn’t want to fork out for the striker. Bottom of the barrel trash.

How’s it pathetic to swap Nelson for Sterling?

Had we not everyone would be screaming how stupid it was to rely on injury prone Nelson who’s been out for 3/4 months now.

Logic dictates that move in isolation was fine.

Utter fucking shit today. Merino up front and Trossard out wide and Sterling to play 3 minutes a game maximum.

I’d rather have nelson over this version of sterling

He’d be on the treatment table again though.

He was pretty terrible. Provided nothing. Unfortunately for him, that’s probably the last time he gets a start this season

Yeah, can shit on Sterling all we like but Nelson’s biggest problem here wasn’t even that he wasn’t good enough. Lad couldn’t stay fit to save his life.
Anytime he got momentum it wasn’t long before he was out with an injury.

We have no choice but to rely on him. I hope he finds his form even a slightest bit

We dont have to.

Zinchenko and Tierney for me offer more and they are fucking left backs lol

Oh I forgot about them. Yeah for wing position, I would consider them ahead of Sterling

And we want Carlos Vela??

I seriously think we should be playing Zinny on the left wing or as a left 8. I’d start him over Sterling

I don’t expect much from him, but I do expect that someone that’s in his 14th professional season would understand the basics of the offside rule.

I actually have nothing but sympathy for this man. Cooked is such an understatement atm.

Everyone was eating and then in comes Raheem. Tried a couple time to get past his man, I think he failed every single time.
