It is important when you score them and how you help them with your team. If they are in matches that do not make or win laurels, it is much less worth it than when you bring cups and goals winning championships. Statistics don’t usually say much. If I remember those times in ten years, I don’t want to be remembered for goals that didn’t make the difference that my teams didn’t win and didn’t win titles. ”

Sterling is also aware that individual success is praiseworthy and enhances self-esteem, but he has learned much more when he is in the City and trained by Pep Guradiola. “During these five years playing for City, I learned that it is always important to leave your mark, a share in the success of the team. That’s a good feeling. The most I’ve learned in blue-shirt jersey is the value of winning. And also being able to to defeat quickly after defeat There were periods when we won in a series, when we won fifteen games in a row, and then defeat came, which completely touched us Guardiola taught us that defeats don’t sweat us that way and that we rise quickly after failures. It is this winning mentality that Guardiola instilled in us is something that will accompany me my whole life. Not only in football, but then in life as well. Thank him for that. ” The fast-paced Sterling, considered by all to be one of the best wing strikers this moment in the world, has been on the radar of Madrid Real for some time.

Who wouldn’t want to play in Real? Whoever says the opposite is not completely honest. The only question is, how many realistic options are there for this. City and the current situation in the world do not offer the right moment to think about leaving. But I always leave the door open, “the Jamaican-born football player ended his conversation with island media.
