Ha, you never know.
The bits I found out about him were very encouraging.
Dante's may be right and he has a large ego for a young lad, but that is a great thing, these kids need big ego's and confidence in themselves and a bit of an edge.
I think that is half the problem with the average players we have, they don't have enough belief in their own abilities.
As to if that is a trait that dovetails with Rafa's philosophy on players, I am not sure

going off at a tangent slightly but I think the average players pass responsibility to the 'stars' rather than take responsibility themselves to ensure a win. someone with an ego wouldn't pass responisbiltiy as in their mind 'THEY' are the star.

That's exactly what I mean, great forwards (not all) have to be greedy bastards and think they are the only ones that can score. That is why Ryan B will struggle to be a top striker in positions when he should have a go he invariably looks to lay it off to someone else, who is in a worse position.
Good footballers are not necessarily people you would want to go out for a pint with

Well Raheem was born in Jamaica. The signs are good 😀

"Born in Jamaica but raised in North West London from the age of 5, Sterling joined QPR’s academy at 10 where his coaches instantly noticed his outstanding talent. Five years later he is rated as highly as Wayne Rooney at the same age, and despite his tender years he is a regular in the club’s u18 side where he scored on his debut in October."

Nice debut though - If he's good enough, I hope he'll get some minutes next year too

Raheem's my new favourite player, along with Pacheco.

Given up on the rest of the useless cunts at the minute.

Nice way to start your career at the club.

Raheem Sterling scored on his debut as Liverpool Under-18s produced a stunning second-half fightback to beat 10-man Everton 4-3 on Tuesday afternoon.

The Reds recovered from a 2-0 deficit to see off their Blue rivals, with the former QPR teenager enjoying a dream start for the club.

Michael Roberts (penalty) , Krisztian Adorjan and Craig Roddan (penalty) were the other scorers as the away side made their numerical advantage count, following the 46th minute sending off of Toffees defender Shane Duffy.

It was an afternoon to savour for boss Rodolfo Borrell, who dedicated the victory to first-team manager Rafael Benitez.

"It is a nice victory for me, but especially for the fans and the club," he told Liverpoolfc.tv.

"I am also happy for Rafael Benitez, as he invests a lot of time in the club and the Academy.

"He made a bold move to bring me and the rest of my staff to Liverpool, so it's nice to be able to win this sort of match for him."

Reflecting on a rollercoaster 90 minutes, Borrell admitted his side were almost made to pay for some poor defending.

"We cannot concede such sloppy goals," he said. "If you concede so easily then normally you lose the match."

The Reds coach also had some words of encouragement for debutant Sterling, but was keen to stress that it was a team performance that saw Liverpool come away with the three points.

"I was pleased with Raheem's contribution and that he scored on his debut. He is quick and skilful but still only young. He can improve tactically and has a long way to go, but he is a great signing for this football club.

"His was one of a number of good individual peformances, but the main thing was how well the team did as a whole. That is what matters most and they all contributed to a deserved triumph."
 
"He could still improve tactically"

Yup, he hasn't learnt that all his attacking play is leaving us wide open the back, the selfish idiot.
