Yes you do come across like that

He does seem to be held to higher standards than others, but I don't see the evidence that it comes from racism. Personally I think it comes far more from the perception that he's greedy. People had the same issues with Ashley Cole, and that came from his bio entry about almost driving off the road in fury when learning he was only being offered £55k per week. Similar with Sterling's antics around contracts for Liverpool and Man City.

I find one of the best ways to irritate the British public is to believe that you're better than you are, and a prime indicator of that is wanting what's perceived as too much money or exposure for your comparative talents. That, combined with a general pack mentality of anons on social media who have seen a target and group together to attack them, explains most of it. (There will always be a few racists out there unfortunately but I think Ian Wright's wrong about racism being the core of this.)

But why are people critical of sterling? I'm not saying it's racism, just find it weird that a lad of pretty much keeps himself to himself, hasn't been in trouble despite being in the public eye from 18, works hard when he plays and is spoken highly of by those that know him, gets such a hard time from the press and supporters.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because of Rodgers throwing him under the bus.

The press got on his back after that, were there any negative stories before it?

I don’t remember any.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
yes there were, about having loads of kid and at the time there was a court case involving one of his ex's
----------------------------------------------------------------------

He doesn't have loads of kids though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
i fecking know that sherlock, he was still getting attacked with it

As someone who’s married to someone from the West Indies I can state with 100% assurance that you are talking bollox.

As per usual.

Racism is not made up, and you have to be thick as pigshite to even suggest it is.
==============

Institutionalized racism is not a thing, never has been. racism is clear, you are either racist to someone or you are not.

To be fair getting decent employment with an IQ in the 50's is difficult for Stretty

What am I making up Stretty? All I said was you live with your parents which is true.

Feel free to try again if you're that way inclined
