Sterling won the FWA Player of the Year Award
The Englishman recently won the Professional Footballers's Association Young Player of the Year and Football Writers' Association Player of the Year awards because of his performances for Manchester City, helping City fend off Liverpool's title challenge for so long. The Englishman, at the moment, is the best Winger in the Premier League this season.

Sterling is equally adept at playing the forward right or the forward left role, and has often switched from right to left within a game to suit Pep Guardiola's tactics. His versatility has been an asset for City, as Sterling has been equally menacing from either flank. The Englishman has a winning combination of speed and trickery, which has spelled doom for almost every opposition he has faced this season.
Sterling has averaged close to 3 successful dribbles and 2.5 key passes per game. However, he has added a killer edge to his game by improving his finishing abilities.
The Englishman has scored 23 goals and registered 12 assists from 45 games in all competitions for City. In many ways, he has been the perfect Pep Guardiola player and is the best winger in the league right now.

Deepungsu Pandit
Deepungsu is a veteran football journalist who has been covering daily transfer roundups and news for over six years at Sportskeeda. He has written over 8500 articles for the website, and has garnered over 19.5Million reads.
Deepungsu holds a PG degree in Microbiology and an MBA degree in Total Quality Management. He has an extensive two-decade long writing experience, which includes a decade of sports blogging. His writing prowess has even led his work getting cited on the legendary Franz Beckenbauer's Wikipedia page.
Inspired by Diego Maradona, Deepungsu played as an attacking midfielder for his local club at subdivision level in his initial years and scored an important goal or two. However, his all-time favorite footballer is Lionel Messi, and evidently, he feels Argentina's glory in 2022 is his favorite FIFA World Cup moment for fulfilling his long-standing dream. He is also an ardent East Bengal fan.
Deepungsu has been a Manchester United supporter since the year 2000. Unsurprisingly, his favorite manager is Sir Alex Ferguson and the Scotsman helped him get through some of the toughest days of his life. Like the fiery Scot, Deepungsu also leaves no stone unturned when it comes to accuracy in articles and only relies on credible sources.
Despite believing in Kylian Mbappe and Erling Haaland to create an iconic rivalry, Deepungsu reckons no one can match the longevity of Messi and Ronaldo. He spends his leisure time writing about life on his blog, reading books, and playing the guitar.
