5 Reasons Why Raheem Sterling Should Sign For Man City

3. He Will Still Develop

The 'This is Anfield' sign that sits proudly above the stairs in the ground's tunnel is not a kind of footballing kryptonite designed by Kenny Dalglish that develops players into superstars, (just ask Jan Kronkamp). Last year, Manchester City opened their brand new £200m Footballing Academy which is reckoned to be the best in the world. The campus has 16 football pitches, three gyms, cryotherapy, ultra-sound rooms, six swimming pools and the third floor acts as a team hotel. A quote from City owner Sheikh Mansour written on a wall of the building reads: "We are building a structure for the future, not just a team of all-stars". It's naive to think that a team who have won the Premier League twice in the last four years don't have the same capabilities or intelligence to develop a 20-year-old superstar? Players such as Aguero, Bony and Silva can offer invaluable advice and develop Sterling's weaker areas - his finishing and decision making.
