Going back a few pages to that Sterling vs Januzaj debate, here's a bit more of an unbiased view on it:
Sterling Vs Januzaj | Future Stars' Stats Comparison
Not taking away from Sterling as I think he's done well this season... but this paragraph is a good conclusion.
Januzaj has a very bright future in front of him and looks set to turn into a brilliant player, with the Belgian already looking like one of the best players on the pitch when he has played. The difference being that Januzaj has played a bit part in a team that has struggled this season, while Sterling is playing with players such as Coutinho and Suarez who supply him with balls in behind the defence to run onto, while Januzaj is given the ball and expected to do something with it.
How times have changed.. stating United are the struggling team and Liverpool have the better teammates
Strange considering they were champions only last season
Very impressive from Sterling, maturing well
Isn't it just. He's matured at quite a rate considering only last season he was talented but raw, with poor decision making, whereas now he's playing with his head as well as his feet.
To be fair on Sterling I do remember quite a few games last season where he performed well. This season obviously it's highlighted more due to Liverpool doing better as a team. But he was pretty good last season too, even though Liverpool weren't that great.
Not saying he didn't do well last season, just suggesting that his consistency has massively improved. He's learning how to influence the game when he's being watched by the opposition, which is invaluable.
Why are the two being compared anyway? I hadn't even thought of comparing the two before. The first I heard of it was last week.
