I'm starting to think out previous failed progression in chimps league is down to Sterling inability to finish big chances?
The club best not pay the fucker 400k wage demands
Would be unfair to point just him out, and I spoke a lot about my opinion on him

One rumour is that City are looking to sell in the summer. Although I can't think where he would go. Since his form has been poor for a long while,
it might be best to not concede to any rise in wages.

One thing to notice from Aguero’s goal today and indeed for a huge number of his goals over the years, is that he has one touch to control the ball and his next one is a shot away. It gives the defence no time to react.
Perhaps Sterling could learn from this? He always seems to want to take an extra touch or two thus allowing the defence a second or two of extra time to recover their positions and composure

You'll notice that at the end the goalie did really well to keep that out, low at the near post. Sergio always aims towards the post. It is incredible how many top players aim at the goalie.

I agree, but when you are demanding £400k, you better deliver for that amount of dosh or accept the criticism. I don't hate Sterling, he would be a good squad addition, I been put off by his demands, he's not world class

Sterling and Jesus today showed why they are off this summer. I thought they were both embarrassing.
Kun showed why he could be a deadly option in a very big game late on. That pair should look at the way he scored. Effortless power, sublime. What a player.
After the ball was centred, after the whistle blew...

I thought Sterling improved second half. Was a tad unlucky not to score. But in the grand scheme of things he isn’t at the levels we expect

I never think he's going to score anymore, he gets in those positions and know he's going to blow it.
That free kick, it was obvious he was going to put it way over.

Sterling always wants a better position instead of pulling the trigger. He did it a few times today. Shifts the ball gives himself half a yard and most clinical goalscorers will shoot in that position but half a yard isn't enough for him. He then wants another half a yard and at that point he is either blocked or crowded out.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

I still think Jesus is a class player, just not a number 9.

Like I posted earlier Arthur Scargill could not make Jesus into a striker, but he is not a bad squad player

I think jesus's future lies in Italy.
Look at that donkey lukaku he can score hat fulls in that league.
Jesus would do well at a slower league where he would have more time to think.
Sterling were stuck with.

Sergio looks sharp. The finish was bread and butter for him.

Agree, he could come in very handy soon if we need a goal with 15-20 mins left in a game!

I'd be interested to know where this "demanding 400k a week" stuff has come from. Anyone?
