Raheem Sterling

Dear lord

[Le Chef]

Rebuffed a loan offer from Leeds for Sterling

[Pablo]

I'm sure his game would have flourished under the flowing hoofball Warnock's teams play

Where do you expect us to finish then Nick?

We've been out of the top four for three seasons now with some massive changes made to the players and management.

Do you think we're better than United?
Moneybags City?
Chelsea?
Arsenal?
Spurs?

I have no idea how some fans expect us to get into the top four almost overnight when you look at the teams at the top. We're heading in the right direction but Rodgers needs time and some fans need to have a good look as to where we are compared to the teams above us and be realistic.

Of course I don't expect us to challenge for top honours overnight ffs! If u read my post carefully & have a decent grasp of the English language, you will realize that is not what I meant at all...
If u still don't understand what I meant this is it - Rodgers is not good enough/experienced enough yet to manage a club the size of LFC...

He's only just been appointed - 3/4 season & there's been improvement - certainkly offensively

Give him time.

Yeah, what we need is someone who has managed teams at the highest level for many years, with a lot of European and even preferably International experience. Someone held in the best regard by the footballing establishment and who has a good relationship with the press. Someone with a global profile.





Hmmmmmmmmm

Raheem Sterling has been revitalised by his recent rest at Liverpool, according to one of his England U21 coaches.

The teenage winger was a regular in the Reds' starting line-up at the start of the season, when his form brought a full England cap against Sweden.

But Brendan Rodgers' has started Sterling just twice in the Premier League in 2013, and England U21s benefited on Thursday as the well-rested 18-year-old starred in the friendly win against Romania.

Coach Brian Eastick said: "He was very good. Brendan has obviously rested him a little bit recently.

"He hasn't played a great deal of football of late so getting a game under his belt with benefit him. He is a talented player and I think possibly that rest has helped.

"Brendan felt he had to take him out of the firing line a little bit at Liverpool. He is a very young player and people forget how young he is. You do need to rest players at the right time.

"Possibly it has done him a little bit of good and he enjoyed his game against Romania. His performance was very good."

Like after they signed a new contract. He shouldn't played as much as he did but did Rodgers really had a choice? If Rodgers hadn't played him then it was a big risk that he would have left.

Not impossible that Rodgers planned to do this even before the season started. Play Sterling and Suso until they sign new deals and after that rest them.

I think thats the half of it. Like the Walcott saga at Arsenal, playing him Striker until he signed, now hes back on the wing

[BigChief]

Very intelligent management by Rodgers.

[Corndog]

Twas good to see Raheem back with his cameo appearance against Villa. I thought it was quite a smart move by Rodgers to sub him on for Coutinho because Sterling actually does his fair share of tracking back which always helps to close games out.

This is how i would like to see Sterling used more often, atm Coutinho is not droppable due to his form but Sterling gives us something different.

Good to see he had said that, and good for Raheem to see it too.
