Raheem Sterling struggled in his debut season at Manchester City, with low goal and assist numbers as well as disappointing performances under Manuel Pellegrini. However, things improved after Pep Guardiola joined the club in 2016. Sterling reflected on how former City player Fabian Delph helped him settle in at the club, alongside Kevin De Bruyne.
Delph, who was not seen as a high-profile signing at the time, proved to be a leader at Manchester City. He played a key role in helping Sterling settle in and even went on to lead by example during City’s ‘Centurions’ season. Delph’s influence extended to instructing teammates and giving guidance both on and off the field, showcasing his leadership qualities.
Despite not being the most glamorous player, Delph’s impact at Manchester City was significant. His leadership and support for young players like Sterling were crucial in helping them adjust to the club. Delph’s contributions were recognized by City fans, and his role in helping Sterling settle in at the club should not be overlooked.
