very good match today. despite scoring a hat trick vs Bournemouth I think that this match was his best in a City shirt.

aside from working on his finishing and i would love to see him stay on his feet more. he goes down far too easily under contact.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

He has great upper body strength when someone tries to muscle him off the ball. I was amazed how strong he is for his frame size.

Best performance in a city shirt by far today. Coke will be having nightmares and will be glad he won't face him again this season.

Apparently subjected to racial abuse yesterday after posting a pic with his daughter and niece on twitter - according to daily mirror.

I'm Astonished at the amount of racial abuse on social media. Balos Instagram is historically horrific as well. Most of it is simply trolling. It's like a pastime to be "fake racist" to take the piss in some circles I feel. But at some point there's nothing fake about it. We've passed that point for these footballers a while ago. It's a sad statement of the lowest common denominator culture that most of the western world holds in seemingly high regard with the generation in their 20s (what are these cunts called again? I can't keep up.)

Cheers

Unfortunately, I'm not in the least bit surprised by it. I work with what are termed underprivileged kids, and I'm constantly amazed at the stuff they come out with.
Not to say that they're all racist, I actually suspect it's a lot to do with rebelling against the current holier than thou political correctness that surrounds the whole issue.

agreed. thats the weird thing. he does have good upper body strength and he uses it sometimes but yesterday he went down so many times. i don't know if he was trying to buy a free kick or if the defenders actually just outmuscled him and pushed him to the ground.

Pushed him to the ground ??? Went down so many times ??? Your not finding negatives out of another superb City performance are you by any chance ???

you don't need to attack phips on all his posts... he makes a valid point, sterling does go down frequently when he could probably stay on his feet. no doubt he picked this up from playing alongside suarez....

In my head he's saying cheeky nandos, cheeky nandos, cheeky nandos, cheeky nandos over and over then just before he speaks he says Nah KFC.

Took his goal beautifully. Pound to a penny he has been working on that on training. The last few times we have seen him open his shoulders to get it onto his right foot, which takes away momentum. This time just passed it into the corner. Lovely

Just wanted to say Liverpool fans who racially abused Raheem and his family are the lowest form of life.he didn't move for money either he wanted to join a big club not some club with Istory in a crime ridden city. They are cunts and I hope the police get involved in nicking them.

He's improving markedly. Didn't want him at the price but he's looking like he's worth it.
