Man City boss Guardiola: A statue for Sterling?

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola heaped praise on Raheem Sterling today ahead of their clash with Leeds.

The City and England star having become the latest name to reach 100 Premier League goals with his match-winning penalty against Wolves.

Asked whether Sterling's efforts warranted a statue alongside those of Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Sergio Aguero, Guardiola smiled: “It is not my decision. I don't know.

“What they have done with the Club, they have done with the Club.

“Every decision he is going to make for me is perfect.

“He has been at Liverpool and here. At his age, because he's young, to score 100 Premier League goals is a lot. This is the reality."
