Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has heap praises on Raheem Sterlin after he scored a brace in his side’s 6-1 victory over Southampton.
Praising the Sterlin for his performance, the former Barcelona manager however failed to place him in the category of world best players.
“Raheem is a top player. But still he is so young to consider among the world’s best players.
“He is in incredible form right now, he’s, sharp, fast, clever, fighting, ambitious, decisive, can play on both sides, in the middle, and receives the ball behind lines.
“He always commits the central defender with a lot of aggression. It was an incredible performance – with and without the ball.
“But still, with the young players like him and Leroy [Sane], I would like to feel that still they can improve. Still he loses simple balls, in the Tottenham game he made an assist in the first minutes but after that he lost a lot of balls.
“Of course, his quality one against one is incredible, and he had an incredible game.
“If he is stable and he focuses on what he has to do to become a better and better player, if he has this on his mind, he can reach whatever he wants,” Guardiola said.
