Sterling has a lot of 'better' players around him and I'm not saying he can win them the league as no one player can do that. But he's not performing to a level that is expected of a £49m player regardless of his age. We'd all be mighty p!ssed off if we'd paid that for him and he was playing like he is, you included.
And Klopp will suffer the same fate as all managers if they don't perform. He's not a miracle worker and has done OK with the player left for him. There is no real 'pinnacle age' for a manager as it's a job where you should be learning all the time especially when you come to a new country, league, team etc. yes but ifSterling wins the league or champions league with City and even if he's average the move to City for that amount will be justified. If for example Sterling wins a league or champions league for City and scored about 10 goals and has an OK season, that will be seen as a better return than Suarez scoring 40 goals and finishing second and winning nothing... It won't be justified if he's a bit part player and 12 - 15 other players have played more and contributed more. It will justify his move to himself as he'll have the medals he moved for (£££££££££££££). But from a value for money point of view for City it won't.

He didn't do it all by himself though as no one can. But he lifted the team to a level that nearly won it.

No. But it's a great example of how a truly world class player can lift a team to near greatness. Remind me again of how Sterling is getting on?

Thats nonsense, the slip is what opposition fans will always like to remind LFC fans of; however, anyone with an ounce of sense who has watched Liverpool and Gerrard over the last 15 years will know better than to think that.

Could it be that our friend is one?

I'll blame Migs crouching tiger positions vs Chelsea and City before I'll blame SG.
Show some more respect to Liverpool's greatest ever player.

Could it be that our friend is one? Exactly, i think most would consider him to be the opposition. I'm not sure anyone could think of him as an ally.

thats just rubbish my friend, people always remember the bad more than the good, I know most Liverpool fans will remember the good in Gerrard but when we get to not winning the League for 50 years that slip will overshadow the good he did. I don't know why the bad gets remembered but just as many people remember Zidane for the headbut and Cantona for the Kung fu Kick as they do about all the good they do. What's that famous saying a lifetime building a reputation and a moment of madness to ruin it, harsh but true.
