C-man Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Sterling can't be far off in terms of current form but I think there are probably more talented players out there. Max Meyer at Schalke looks a better prospect than Draxler, Marquinhos and a few of the others on the list above all look very, very promising.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Well it's just a ridiculous statement, what you mean to say is 'Raheem Sterling is the best teenage footballer in world football that I am aware of in my opinion'.
Grandad. Posted 31 July 2014 Author Posted 31 July 2014 Well it's just a ridiculous statement, what you mean to say is 'Raheem Sterling is the best teenage footballer in world football that I am aware of in my opinion'. Why do you bring your sad little life in to this thread? Seriously? Instead of picking fault at my posts and my club, why not avoid the thread? You're working yourself up something rotten over me recently, quite worrying in truth. You have added nothing to what this thread is designed for, even when people have disagreed with something they have been able to debate it with me, unlike yourself, you seem to take everything I say to heart. Do yourself a favour and don't come in this thread.
Sharpe's Fox Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 He's got a shit first name but an awesome second name. Seriously, Raheem? Sounds like a Bradford market seller. For me that makes Janujaz better.

Sorry to say mate, and don't have a go at me for saying it, but after reading that post, there's only one of you getting " worked up something rotten" about the other.Just calm down, a little maybe? And just try and ignore him?
kingfox Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 So like I said mate, Raheem Sterling is the best teenage footballer in the world. What you been inhaling, glue?
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Well it's just a ridiculous statement, what you mean to say is 'Raheem Sterling is the best teenage footballer in world football that I am aware of in my opinion'. I'd have thought the fact he posted it / made the statement would've made it obvious enough it was his opinion...
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Well I'm not going to sink to your low level, simple fact is he isn't the best teenage footballer in the world, so leave it at that.
RonnieTodger Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 It's a bit like the Ashley Cole "best left-back in the world". I thought he can't be, but I couldn't think of anyone better 3 or 4 years ago. Same goes for Sterling, now that I know Draxler isn't a teenager anymore.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Goretza, Correa, Werner, Marqunhos, Zouma, Fischer, Meyer, Torres?
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 You're acting as if Grandad's opinion is completely absured to prove a point, though. To say that Sterling isn't the best teenager in world football "by some margin" is just an utterly daft thing to say, even if you do disagree with the opinion that he's the top boy. He's clearly in the top handful, if not the best.
ScouseFox Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Goretza, Correa, Werner, Marqunhos, Zouma, Fischer, Meyer, Torres? assuming you mean oliver torres? he has the potential to be better than sterling, hopefully he'll be a first team player at porto this year and we can see what he can do consistently but he's nowhere near sterling right now. other than that he's right sterling is head and shoulders above anyone else who's been named on any of these lists.

Samilktray Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 I think Raheem is gonna be a bit special in a few years. I just pray he continues to play and learn under Rodgers for England's sake.
J.Lisemore Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 I'd definitely say he's one of the best teenage players at the moment. Just hope he can handle the pressure of being the star of a mediocre England side in years to come.
Darkon84 Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Right now? I think he is exceptional. Pace, skill, intelligent, his strength for his size is amazing, scores all types of goals, creates all kinds of goals, beats a man with his pace or his skill, good passer and will only get better and better. Draxler is nearly 21. So like I said mate, Raheem Sterling is the best teenage footballer in the world. Fair enough about Draxler, I was being a little lazy, not checking that. It's a hell of a statement to make, that's or sure. For all his pace and his ability to beat a man with it, I still think his passing can be a bit wayward, his decision making isn't the greatest and his ability to hold his nerve will be tested far more this year. Those things will, of course, come with age, but there are a very select few teenage footballers at the minute who have their own outstanding attributes, but have a maturity beyond their years at the minute too. So, as mentioned, taking all the different things like that in to account, mate, PERSONALLY, I'd go for Goretzka or Marquinhos. There's no doubt Sterling is an exciting player and will only get better though. Or he could turn out like Aaron Lennon and not learn from his mistakes haha.
AKCJ Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Wouldn't say he's the best, not by a long chalk, but he's certainly one of the most exciting.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 He's up there, he's an exciting player to watch, I like him and think he could come on and become a great player, but better than Meyer? Not for me, If he was some lad playing in Europe, doubt many people from these shores would even know who he was, rightly or wrongly.
ScouseFox Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 there's maybe a lot more with similar potential or excitement or whatever but right now if you were to pick any of them for your team you'd pick sterling. unless you were an idiot, which granted a few on here are.
Hugo Sanchez Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 He had a crap world cup and hardly lit the Premiership up last season. Just albert in typical Liverpool bias post. Jordan Henderson amazing, Slippy G has got 3 year's left in him Let me give you the Facts, Liverpool lose their only world class player = 6th Place finish. They're are gonna shame England in the CL too. Honestly so embarrassing Liverpool fans are.

And: What happens if Liverpool finish 5th? Are you going to eat a broomstick?
Hugo Sanchez Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Got my ticket for the Leicester Arsenal game today MC. See you there pal.
AKCJ Posted 31 July 2014 Posted 31 July 2014 Got my ticket for the Leicester Arsenal game today MC. See you there pal. I bet you'll be in the home end with a half Leicester half Arsenal scarf and you'll annoyingly applaud them if the score, saying "You have to hand it to them, that's superb football".
