Merson: Leeds should look at Sterling
Paul Merson told The Football Show: “It’s hard. Raheem’s been playing football all the time.
” At Arsenal, he’s coming in for a game here and a game there. When he has come in, it’s not Arsenal’s full team.
“I don’t know where he goes from here. That will be up to him, but you need to consistently play week in, week out to get a rhythm.
“He’s come in for games where they’ve made changes so it’s not been fluid. I do feel for him, but I think his time at Arsenal will be up.
“If I was a Leeds United, I’d be looking at Raheem.
“They’re a young team, they like to play attacking football and he’s very good in the dressing room and a good team player.
“He’s got all the experience in the world, he’s won Premier League.
“He’d be going to a huge club and the expectations are not as high.
“If they finish 17th in the Premier League next year, they’ve pulled up trees, so that wouldn’t be a bad move.”
