#4 Sterling continues to impress

Raheem Sterling continued his blistering start to the new campaign, adding another goal to his tally after the hattrick he scored against West Ham last week.

Time and time again, the Englishman's devastating runs down the left wing allows City to score almost repetitively against their opponents, Sterling runs in behind the defender, receives a through ball and cuts back inside the box and passes to the nearest man or shoots himself.

It is astounding to see City score the same type of goal, match after match, and Sterling did it again on Saturday. De Bruyne laid a meticulous cross at the forward's path, who lashed the ball inside the Spurs net.

In the second half, Sterling continued to harass the opposition defense and was guilty of wasting two clearcut chances but what cannot be denied is that the former Liverpool man has reached a new level of play under Guardiola, and will surely seek to stake his claim on the golden boot this season.
