5 forgotten football stars who are back in form this season

4) Raheem Sterling

Liverpool fans have a special hatred towards Raheem Sterling for the way he left the club a year ago. They were delighted when his season completely blew up last time out after a series of under-par performance for Manchester City.

Sterling had a breakthrough season for Liverpool before he made the big money move to City. The winger was bought for a sum of 49 million pounds but failed spectacularly on the pitch.

His movement was predictable and defenders could always read which he was going to run. Sterling scored just 6 times in the league and looked nothing like the 49 million man City thought they were getting.

The Euros was the next disaster that followed and he got stick from England fans for his performances. Pep Guardiola who had been appointed as the coach to take over from Manuel Pellegrini sent him a personal message telling him he would help him get back to his best and that he trusted him.

It seems like the Spaniard has already performed miracles with the star as he has taken the Premier League by storm this season. He already has 5 goals in all competitions this season added to the impressive assist tally as well.

Everyone is raving about his performances at the moment and it’s now up to him to keep level-headed and maintain this level of performance.
