How does Manchester City 'flop' Raheem Sterling compare to Manchester United 'star' Anthony Martial?

Calling Sterling a mega-money flop is a tad harsh.

He's got youth on his side and i'm more than confident he'll show the critics wrong. Patience is a virtue, or so Mrs T tells me.
 
Use of video technology would mean Man City go top of the table by winning their game in hand, rather than still trailing in the title race.

I do believe we've been saying this for a while.

I wonder why ref's are giving us such a hard time? I simply can't put my finger on it.
 
what I can't get round BD is why they think Aguero dives, because if they don't give a penalty then they should book him for diving.

Secondly how can cluster**ckc**t give a penalty for something he can't see is another of the examples in the piece.
 
Same applies to Sterling Buzzer, I can think of 3 off the top of my head, Villa away Clark trips him, no penalty and no card for diving, same against Arsenal with Metersacker, same against Everton with Stones.
 
Yes it seems a bit of a hatchet job when it comes to City not matter what they do.

I remember they hacked us as the worse defence of a title even though we finished 2nd, The rags get a mere mention when they defended the title
 
The rags had a worse title defense than we did, and Chelsea's has been woeful, but neither one got the amount of stick that we did.

And I've been saying the same about Leicester the entire season. They have gotten away with a few penalties not called against them, and they've had quite a few soft penalties go in their favor. The human element is that everyone wants the cinderella story, the little guy rising up, etc, but if it's not earned, it's not the same.
 
Leicester are the 'Cinderalla Man' without a doubt. But in truth please God they win it if we can't. Imagine what the world would be like if the Arse or the Spuds won it ? Wow !

I wonder how they would perform if they were to swap clubs - Martial playing in an attacking set up and Sterling in one where any sense of adventure is discouraged.

It would be interesting if only to see would Martial constantly look for Kolarov's overlap like Sterling does or would we see the same player we see at the rags that takes his man on every time.
