The news of Raheem Sterling's downfall has sent shockwaves through the football world, leaving many, including Emmanuel Petit, saddened by the turn of events. The once-promising player, who had shown great potential during his time at Manchester City, has failed to live up to expectations since his move to Chelsea two years ago.
It was a harsh blow when Sterling was told by Enzo Maresca that he was no longer needed at the club, but the prospect of a loan move to Arsenal seemed like a golden opportunity for him to revive his career. After all, he had a good working relationship with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta during their time together at City. However, things have not gone according to plan for Sterling at Arsenal either.
Despite his impressive speed and skills, Sterling has only started one Premier League game this season and finds himself behind other players in Arteta's pecking order. Emmanuel Petit expressed his concerns, saying, "Something just doesn't seem right with Raheem Sterling this season. If you take away his speed, what else does he offer? I have a feeling that he's lost his hunger for the game."
Petit believes that Sterling's lack of motivation could be due to the fact that he feels he has achieved everything he needs to in football. He also predicts that Chelsea will put him up for sale in the summer, but Sterling will have to take a pay cut if he wants to leave. Otherwise, he will remain at Chelsea, forgotten and unseen on the team sheet.
Meanwhile, Arteta has acknowledged that he needs to give Sterling more playing time and has praised his commitment and dedication to the team. He has promised to give him more opportunities in the coming weeks and believes that Sterling can make a positive impact on the team.
It's a critical time for Sterling, and all eyes will be on him as he tries to prove himself and reignite his passion for the game. Fans and football enthusiasts alike will be eagerly waiting to see if he can bounce back from this setback and reach the heights that were expected of him.
