So I did this SBC because he felt like a really sick card and I didn't know what to do with my coins, once I finished it I stuck a marksman chem style, and his dribbling was off the charts! it was insane! With that boosted shooting also he felt like an absolute beast on the wing! I definitely recommend doing it it it was for like 250-300k. But overall, a sick card.
- Acceleration. Every time he receives the ball he runs so quickly in a literal millisecond.
- Finishing. Goes into the net every time he shoots in the box.
- Dribbling. Dribbles like prime Messi, just insane.
- Crossing and long passing. One of the most important things about a winger is that they should be able to provide assists as well, and that crossing and long passing don't feel the best.
- He is really weak.
When I saw that this card had come out I instantly got flashbacks to his gold card at the start of the game which I thoroughly enjoyed, so I thought I would give him a try. Although I was hoping Martinelli would of won, this card didn't disappoint. His outrageous dribbling made him great for getting round players and creating opportunities. His pace made him hard to catch up with, either upfront or on the wing. I believe his passing stats are a lie and should be much higher. His finishing ability was only a slight problem but he isn't a striker. I would definitely recommend this card (Div1 currently)

this guy is insane. i decided to do him over an icon because I was very impressed with how gold Sterling performed earlier in the game, and he fit into my squad well. He was worth it. He beats almost every defender for pace, and his dribbling is like Messi on steroids. not to mention his shooting, which is very convincing and clinical, and his passing, which is also serviceable. this a good value sbc.
Crazy pace
Crazy dribbling
Great finishing
Decent passing
Kinda weak
Not one defensive atom in his body.
Raheem sterling was a must do for me as a man city fan. Used almost all my fodder and 100k in order to do to go along with my bernardo and de bruyne in my team. This card surprised me in both aspects as he is great at finishing and his pace is blistering although i do not find his RB dribbling to be up to my expectations. I used him this weekend league with the team above(ingame) and i also tried him as a left winger in a 4-2-3-1.
Speed- what you get on the tin, very quick acceleration breezing past cb such as IF Van Dijk, Headliners Koulibaly and rule breakers Rudiger. When faced with extremely meta and quick fullbacks like Hernandez IF, Winter Wildcard Tierney or Baby Cafu he can struggle with getting past
Shooting- Unlike sterling in real life, POTM sterling has a wide range of shooting with his finesse shots slightly weakened but his direct shooting being way above expectations. Outside the box isnt great but he can occasionally curl a banger in top corner.
Dribbling- He thrives in the open field where he can make decisions seconds before making the actions. Skills are solid enough to get past but he only has 4 Star so as expected.
RB Dribbling- Most underwhelming thing about the card for me, as an average FIFA player, The occasional RB dribble is useful until it comes to Sterling. Its not bad by any means but i was expecting similar to my Bernardo card which sadly sterling isn't.
Stamina- comes of 70th min for FB Mahrez and change my formation up. Does so much running that he tires himself out
