My View: Raheem Sterling brilliant for Chelsea vs Burnley
Raheem Sterling has not been at his best this season, but the Chelsea star was superb against Burnley at Turf Moor in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.
Sterling ran the show for the Blues and was a problem for the Clarets during his time on the pitch.
The former Manchester City star was involved in all four of Chelsea’s goals on Saturday.
Sterling’s cross saw Ameen Al-Dakhil score an own goal.
It was the Englishman who then won the penalty in the second half that Cole Palmer tucked away.
Sterling also made a telling contribution to Nicolas Jackson’s goal.
