3 Manchester City players who attributed to their 2-1 loss against Leicester City

#3 Raheem Sterling

Leicester City v Manchester City - Premier League

On his day, Sterling becomes a nuisance and hard to handle. The way Raheem creates spaces for teammates in the opposition box with his direct runs and pace is perhaps the reason why Manchester City rates him highly. Unfortunately, today against Leicester, Sterling was not impressive at all.

He failed to utilize his pace to press Leicester’s defense into making errors. Instead, City fans were forced to watch an out of form Sterling who did nothing with the ball on his feet. In most cases, Raheem Sterling’s decision making was wanting- losing the ball in crucial areas.

After suffering two defeats in a row, it is now clear that the team lacks confidence. City’s poor form has been attributed to a number of factors. "It was a similar performance to the Crystal Palace game, we started well but conceded a goal the first time they arrived in our box. Mentally we are lacking confidence in that situation," Guardiola told the BBC. Manchester City next plays Southampton on Sunday.
