RAHEEM STERLING should be approaching the peak of his career.
He doesn't turn 30 until next month, the age when mos footballers of his standing feel in their prime.
Instead, all Sterling feels is mounting frustration at becoming the forgotten man of the English game.
He used to be centre stage for both club and country. He was winning trophies with Manchester City and helping the Three Lions go deep in major tournaments.
He was using his position and profile to lead the fight against racism.
But these days Sterling can't even get a game for the club he's on loan at, having been discarded by Chelsea.
A club so desperate to get him out of the building they are paying the bulk of his wages on behalf of a rival.
