Scott Minto, a former left-back for Chelsea, has criticized Raheem Sterling’s technical football skills, especially in striking the ball.

However, he also acknowledged Sterling’s outstanding talent as a footballer.
“Raheem Sterling missed a one-on-one [Leicester City]; he missed a penalty where he should not really have taken it in the first place,” Minto told talkSPORT.

“And Raheem Sterling, as good a player as he is and it seems ridiculous to say, because I’d hate to have marked him, but he is never really struck the ball really well as a professional footballer.
“So I would not have him on free-kicks or penalties.”
