Raheem Sterling was "fuming and raging" after "misunderstandings" led to Man City exit

Raheem Sterling has admitted he was left "fuming and raging" by his treatment at Manchester City, which led to him leaving for Chelsea this summer.

The attacker saw his playing time decrease over his final few seasons at the Etihad Stadium, with Pep Guardiola employing a rotation system for his forward players. That meant he started just 23 of their Premier League games last term as they won the title.

Amid those frustrations over playing time, Sterling opted to join Chelsea for £47.5million in July. The Englishman is now one of the starting forwards in Thomas Tuchel's line-up, providing one assist so far this campaign.
