Is Raheem Sterling better than Messaldo at 19?

I think he's better than CR7 at 19 but he was a player that needed to gain physical stature before he fulfilled his potential.

Messi would be more comparable due to size. I think he is on a par with him at 19.

I think some people will only realise that Messi is the greatest ever when he's long gone..

Raheem Sterling better than him at 19 ? Liverpool fans

It's far from an outlandish comparison. Sterling has got better and better and has probably been Liverpool's best player since December. He's driving Liverpool to the title for the first time in 24 years. That kind of thing is unheard of for a player who only recently turned 19.

Where are these Liverpool fans?

Thread was not started by a Liverpool supporter.

Anyway I don't think he is as good as Mess I or Ronaldo at that age but they are two of the best footballers ever. Sterling has a massive future though. Suarez and sturidge have not been at their brilliant best the last 4 games but Sterling has stepped up to the plate.
Matured remarkably over the last year. So strong for a small bloke too
