Recent reports suggest Pep Guardiola himself intervened to get Raheem Sterling a new deal with Manchester City. Going by his performances in the World Cup and this season, it is not a surprise that he got a new 3 year deal with the club.

But the gesture of his coach, Pep Guardiola, shows how much he values the importance of Sterling despite having a plethora of talent in Manchester City. In the absence of City's main playmaker, Kevin De Bruyne, Sterling played a huge role when it came to creating chances for the forwards.

Despite not being able to find the net against Manchester United in 12 games he played against them in the Premier League, he will have ample of responsibility when City takes on United today. He will be desperate to broke the deadlock which his 19 shots haven't been able to break.

It is time for 22 warriors to be on the pitch and make the whole world notice with their performances. Superstars like Sterling, Pogba, Laporte and Martial will have their chance at glory while a seasoned player like Aguero will make sure that people find his name in the history books.
