Manchester City 5-1 Leicester City: 5 Talking Points

#4 Raheem Sterling makes up for his horrendous miss against Burnley

Sterling netted his 20th goal of the season against Leicester

No one from the City camp wanted a goal more than Raheem Sterling. The winger must have had nightmares about his miss against Burnley which fitted the criteria of being the miss of the season. But it took the Englishman not more than 180 seconds to make amends with a late dash into the six-yard box and scoring another goal from a Kevin De Bruyne cross.

This was Sterling's 15th Premier League goal and his 20th in all competitions. The majority of those have come from his newfound sharpness in and around the penalty box, making timely runs and latching onto deliveries like a seasoned forward.

Sterling has come a long way this campaign when you take into consideration the fact that the winger's previous best goalscoring return was 11 goals in the 2014/15 and 2015/16 seasons.

74 - Since his @premierleague debut in March 2012, Raheem Sterling has been directly involved in 74 goals in the competition (46 goals, 28 assists). Of English players, only Harry Kane (114) and Wayne Rooney (109) have had a hand in more. Lion.
