Sterling, who can operate as a winger or as an attacking midfielder, moved to Chelsea from City in the summer of 2022.
Cole Palmer on Chelsea teammate Raheem Sterling
Palmer, who can also play as a winger or as an attacking midfielder, joined the Blues from the Citizens in the summer of 2023.
And he seems pleased to be playing with Sterling again.
Palmer said about Sterling: “I think he is massively underrated as well.
“All the goals he scored, the assists, he has played for England in major competitions.
“Great player.”
My View: Raheem Sterling is world class
In my opinion, Chelsea and England international star Raheem Sterling is a world-class player.
Sterling is 28 now and at his peak.
True, the attacker was not at his best last season, but he is starting to star for Chelsea now.
Chelsea are among the clubs aiming to finish in the top four of the Premier League table this season.
I believe that Sterling will play his role in that quest.
The Chelsea no. 31 has made seven starts and one substitute appearance in the Premier League so far this season.
The former Liverpool player has scored three goals in those games and was brilliant against Burnley.
Sterling was a goal machine when he was at Manchester City.
I believe that if Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino allows the 28-year-old the freedom to get inside the opposition’s penalty area, then he will bang in the goals for fun again.
Chelsea will take on Arsenal at Stamford Bridge in London in the Premier League on Saturday.
Sterling is likely to start and will be a problem for the Arsenal defence.
