The witch hunt on a player whose crimes so far appear to be putting in a transfer request (yet no headline for Rooney, Lallana, Stones...) and doing some nos balloons is utterly ridiculous, oh and being part of a 23 man squad which played badly. Based on the Euro 2016 England threads it seems to have worked as everyone hates him and even picked on him during the Iceland game despite Kane and Rooney barely looking like Conference footballers.
I really don't get it and why the media are trying to take down probably the most exciting youth player we've had in a while for hitting some bad form following an injury.

I am just slightly too young to have watched the formation of the "Golden Generation" from the time they were teenagers, but with a lot of this group I've watched them playing for England youth sides, making debuts, etc. Having watched Sterling since he was about 16, at no point does he come across as a bad kid. He is such a gifted footballer, something which, it's worth noting, it not just bestowed on you by the heavens but which you have to work at incredibly hard.
He's 22 now (I believe, I wonder if The Sun don't include that lest someone reads it and thinks "FFS he's only 22). I cannot imagine how I would have reacted had I been 22 and splashed across the tabloids as the nation's great idiot. The talismanic culture of England, which makes it so that the likes of Rooney, Beckham, Gerrard, etc continue their international careers long after they should have quit, also demands blood, unfortunately. I wish Raheem all the best, and genuinely hope he is a better player as a result of this summer.
CHILD IN BUYING MOTHER NICE HOUSE AS 'THANK YOU' FOR RAISING HIM AS A SINGLE PARENT HORROR!!!!
Bloody immigrants and their terrible values.
It could be his mother's taste, not his.
Frankly, why should any of us care, as long as he does his best when he's on the pitch?
Edit.- By good story I mean one that sells the most/makes the most money for Murdoch.
The Sun is so bad it made me sympathise with bloody Liverpool fans. I mean, come on.
The only rating they got right was the 5 for Hart.
Milton Keynes is scum.
