Raheem Sterling says he is under the guidance of Pep Guardiola, constantly called to become the best.
The winger enjoys an outstanding personal and collective form, earning praise and deserved nominations for the player's title of the PFA season.
In 42 appearances this season, Sterling scored 19 goals and 16 badists, one of the keys to City's unprecedented City Quad quest, and attributes his coach's talent to motivation.
