Raheem Sterling has admitted the Chelsea dressing room have been left speechless by their poor form this season and often “just sit in the changing room looking into space” after defeats.
Sterling, 28, became the first signing of the Todd Boehly era in a £50million deal back in July but has failed to emulate the goalscoring form that made him a regular in Manchester City's title-winning teams.
The England international has bagged just four Premier League goals this campaign having scored 78 league goals across the last five seasons he had in Manchester, hitting double figures in each of those years – but his personal struggles in front of goal have mirrored those of his Stamford Bridge teammates this campaign.
