Raheem Sterling told he's not in World Cup consideration after "absolutely terrible" game

Raheem Sterling had a "really, really bad time" during Chelsea's defeat to Brighton on Saturday according to former Blues star Pat Nevin, who says the 27-year-old doesn't deserve a World Cup place on current form.

Former Liverpool and Manchester City winger Sterling was substituted just after the hour mark of Chelsea's 4-1 defeat at Amex Stadium, and the England international is now without a Premier League goal since August.

Sterling has also failed to score in his last eight appearances for Chelsea in all competitions, with his last goal coming in the Champions League draw with Salzburg in September in Graham Potter's first game in charge.
