Man City star Raheem Sterling has been named All Football Player of the Week.
Sterling highlights our All Football Team of the Week and was selected as a competitive candidate in our All Football Player of the Week Vote, in which he casts the most votes beating Messi, Mbappe, Ruiz, Weghorst & Hegerberg to the award.
The England international scored a brace & set up another goal as Manchester City humiliated Watford in the FA Cup final to seal a historic domestic treble on Saturday.
The 24-year-old star's contribution to City's domestic domination has been widely recognized: he was voted PFA Young Player of the Year and was elected the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year.
His 25 goals & 15 assists have been a significant contribution too, in a season where City have won an unequalled 50 games (out of 59) and scored an incredible 169 goals.
And there's another good news for him, Sterling could end his stunning season by being named England captain against Netherlands in the Nations League next month – on his 50th England cap.
This might be the beginning of another magical story, right?

Finally someone other THAN Messi won the player of the week. Although I would prefer Wout to win it but Sterling also did well. With; - 2 goals . - 1 assist. - and a perfect rating. He deserves it. His goals and assist were the reason why Manchester City won the thier 1st domestic treble. In my opinion, he should be considered in the top 5 Ballon d'or ranking of this season. Congratulations and all the best Sterling.

Thank you @Afy for making this fair to all of us. We all knew that Messi led the votes but Zterling had more goal contributions, more dribbles and a far better rating Messi. No offence to Leo though but Sterling did better than him.
