Sterling's gaff up for sale

Either he's leaving Liverpool this summer or he's spending some of his new contract money on a plusher pad.

He's not looked as good as last season, or earlier this season, but still has flashes of brilliance. He needs to be far more consistent though.

I don't think he's looked as good as last season for a couple of reasons:

1. He's had to play as a striker for a lot of games.

2. He's not got the movement of Sturridge or Suarez ahead of him to take players away and create spaces for him to run into.

3. Due to the lack of movement up front - he tends to get doubled up on by defenders.

We saw on Sunday and in many games this season, how much room Navas potentially has on the right - the problem is, he either passes back inside or tries only to beat the man early and get a first time cross in. You rarely see him run at a defender on an angle...so he can beat him inside or outside...it's very predictable. Sterling can beat a defender and generally is very direct, trying to get into the box....and with the movement of Silva and Aguero up front....I think he'd be a perfect replacement for Navas.

Ummmm

I was surprised how easy he was knocked off the ball against Chelsea on Sunday he appeared to be easily bullied, whether that was due to that terrible 30 second lunge by Fabregas or not I don't know.

Maybe he's just shit n over-rated
