Although he has already equalled that tally, he has failed to produce the same level of performance that made him a feared attacker while he played with Manchester City and Liverpool.
In Chelsea’s recent Carabao Cup final, Sterling failed to make much impact and was taken off in the 67th minute for Christopher Nkunku.JAMB Result
Obi Mikel, speaking on the Obi One Podcast, stated that Sterling was a ‘shadow of himself’ this season and criticized him for moving away from the low center of gravity, making him an easy player to pass.NYSC Portal
“I think he is miles off it to be honest at this point,” Obi Mikel said on the Obi One Podcast.
“He is not the player that we saw at Manchester City or the player that we were used to watching. A low centre of gravity, a player a bit like [Eden] Hazard.”
