Manchester City forward Raheem Sterling has heaped praise on teammate Sergio Aguero and says the Argentine is helping him provide the goods in attack.
Sterling equalled his best ever season in front of goal on Saturday, notching his 11th goal in all competitions for the Blues.
And he says he has learned a lot from Aguero, who is among the best strikers in world football.
Speaking to the Mirror, he said:
I’ve been working on my finishing, it’s something I want to do. Obviously we have players in the team like Sergio, who you can look at and improve your game, and it’s no different for me. Every day I’m trying to improve the quality of my play, and hopefully I can continue. He is a world-class striker and someone I can look up to, so it’s always nice to have someone like him who you can watch and see how they finish.
Though his goalscoring form is impressive, Sterling says he is not satisfied with his current tally and hopes to have achieved his personal target once the end of the season comes around.
With 10 games to go, I have matched my record in terms of goals at Liverpool, which is 11 so far. It isn’t near my target. It’s a personal target, not one to put in the press, and hopefully I can go on and reach that target I set myself for my first season here.
