For Gabby that is good not great. His playing level will vary between good and very good because his attitude and work ethic are so strong.
For Sterling it is wait and see. For two seasons now he has looked as if he wanted away and his performances reflected this. Will Chelsea revitalize him and he reverts to the Sterling of 3/4 years ago? What is certain is that Sterling will never ever be a clinical finisher. If Chelsea are relying on him to put away scarce chances in the big games, like us, they will be disappointed.
I am unsure what Sterling's true level is. Time will tell.
Two factors that mitigate against them. They will never play in a team that creates as many chances as we do, lots of them easy ones.
The Pep factor. He makes players better. Tuchel and Arteta are unlikely to bring either to a higher level.
Gabby will be the star of the arse side. The fact he was squad player here just shows that City are on a different level.
As for Sterling, who knows!
