‘We disrespect him so much’ – Some Man City fans applaud Star forward after stunning PL milestone

Goals from Ruben Dias and Bernardo Silva were enough for Manchester City to overcome Aston Villa 2-1 on Wednesday night, but Raheem Sterling performance was a reminder of how good he can be.

Sterling, who has been on the backend of criticism from some fans all season, has taken advantage of the absences of Grealish, Foden and De Bruyne to build his confidence back up, scoring three goals in as many appearances after a long drought and settling into the team.

His display against Aston Villa was on another level though, driving the team forward in a way that hasn’t been seen since the middle of last winter as City were streaking clear of their Premier League rivals.

It was an absolute livewire in the first half, pulling all of his tricks out of the bag and setting up that Dias opener. This was best performance this season, driving at defenders and carrying the ball with speed and skill to help win the game for his team.

It’s a pleasure to watch him when he’s like this- not scoring but terrorising defences anyway. Getting better and better with every game.

With the forward’s assist last night opening the scoring for City, as per City Xtra, the England international has now reached 150 goal involvements in the Premier League, with the winger just two goals off the elusive 100 Club in the English top-flight.

Given Sterling’s age, it is quite a remarkable feat from the 26-year-old. And it was overall a night to remember for the attacker, with Pep Guardiola lauding the forward for his display against Villa.
