Petit Slams Sterling’s Disappointing Season
Former Arsenal and Chelsea midfielder Emmanuel Petit has launched a scathing critique of Raheem Sterling’s performance this season. The English winger, who is currently on loan at Arsenal from Chelsea, has failed to live up to expectations, according to Petit.
The French World Cup winner believes that Sterling’s move away from Manchester City has coincided with a decline in his form. He suggests that the player’s motivation and hunger have waned, perhaps due to his financial success.
Petit highlighted the contrast between Sterling’s previous performances at Manchester City and his recent struggles. He questioned whether the winger still possesses the same drive and determination that once made him one of the most exciting talents in English football.
As Sterling continues to search for his best form, his future at Chelsea remains uncertain. With the club undergoing a period of transition, it remains to be seen whether the 28-year-old can regain his previous level of performance and secure a regular starting role.
