Sterling is the Best Young Player in Europe says Rodgers

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers made a point to proclaim his delight with the recent performances of in form England winger Raheem Sterling. Sterling scored two and assisted Luis Suarez in a tense affair at Carrow Road, as Liverpool scraped their 11th consecutive victory with a 3-2 victory over Norwich City.

“He is the best young player in European football at the moment. At 19 years of age you don’t see anyone better. His intelligence with the ball, his movement and he’s scoring goals. His first goal was a wonderful strike. He’s just shifted it, got his shot off; to beat a goalkeeper of John Ruddy’s quality shows you the quality of the strike.”

“His pass for Luis’s goal was like a top midfield player, so there’s an assist, and his position for the counter attack when he broke away and obviously gets a bit of luck on the deflection but his overall performance he’s shown so much maturity.”

Sterling’s recent performances have been noticed by fans and journalists alike, with many believing he is a guaranteed starter for Roy Hodgson’s England in June at the World Cup in Brazil.
