Description

Sterling can expect to receive a fierce reception as he returns to his former club Liverpool on Saturday – but manager Guardiola believes the youngster can learn from such an experience. Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola claims Raheem Sterling is a “fighter” and backed him to turn a hostile reception from Liverpool supporters into a valuable learning experience. The manner of Sterling’s £49m departure from Anfield to City in July 2015 still rankles with Liverpool fans and he can again expect a similar reaction on Merseyside come Saturday evening.
