Raheem Sterling performance in Arsenal’s 2-1 win over Tottenham highlighted his struggle with confidence and lack of impact. Despite attempts to integrate him into attacks, his pace and sharpness were lacking. His most telling moment was during Arsenal’s winning goal, where he was slow to join the play. With Arsenal forward crisis deepening, Sterling future remains uncertain.
The recent match between Arsenal and Tottenham, which ended 2-1 in Arsenal’s favour, highlighted a concerning performance from Raheem Sterling, who stepped in due to injuries affecting the Gunners' forward line. Arsenal's squad was already missing Gabriel Jesus, who will be out for the season due to a torn ACL, and Bukayo Saka, sidelined until at least April. In his third league start for Arsenal, Sterling struggled to make an impact, showing signs of a player lacking confidence.
Despite efforts from teammates like Martin Ødegaard and Kai Havertz to involve him, Sterling's pace and sharpness seemed to be missing, and he failed to capitalize on several chances. His most telling moment came late in the match when Arsenal scored their winning goal while Sterling was still walking in his own half.
Sterling was subbed off after 61 minutes, continuing a trend of short appearances in league matches. While he did contribute defensively at times and linked up play in certain instances, his overall performance raised doubts about his ability to solve Arsenal's forward crisis. With Arsenal actively pursuing new signings to strengthen their attack, including potential targets like Alexander Isak and Dusan Vlahovic, it remains to be seen if Sterling can regain his former form.
