Brendan Rodgers: 'Raheem Sterling has reached another level'

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers feels that Raheem Sterling has taken his game to another level with his performances for the club this season.

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers believes that winger Raheem Sterling has reached another level with his performances this season.

The 19-year-old had a break-out season for the Reds in the last campaign, but has managed to raise the level of his game this season without the support of Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge.

Rodgers is adamant that Sterling's performance in his side's win over Leicester City on Tuesday typified his growth as a player over the last year.

"He has taken on extra responsibility, absolutely, and kicked on. I have reiterated to him his qualities and strengths, his pace, skill, his directness – that's his game," Rodgers told reporters.

"I think you have seen him develop into a very good young footballer. He's not just someone who can run direct with the ball, he can play one-touch, he can play two-touch. He's such a threat.

"You looked at him the other night against the boy [Ritchie] De Laet, who is a super-quick player. Raheem's pace was frightening. His runs were very good and at 19, nearly 20, I think he's shown he has gone to an extra level."

Liverpool face off against Sunderland in their Premier League clash later today.
