Raheem Sterling has been in inspiring form for Manchester City this season. The 24-year-old has drastically improved under Pep Guardiola and has been a key figure for his side. The England international has certainly improved on his finishing and has become much more composed in front of goal.

Sterling has netted 17 goals and contributed another 9 assists in the Premier League so far this season for Manchester City. He is also averaging 2.3 shots per game, 2 key passes per game and 2.4 dribbles per game this season in the Premier League.

Sterling has been at the end of a lot of criticism by the media and the fans, but he has been proving his critics wrong with spectacular performances on the pitch every week and he deserves to be in the running for the PFA Player of the Year.
