Raheem Sterling has been one of the standout players in the Premier League this season and it is easy to see why so many clubs would want the Manchester City winger.
Arsenal fan Piers Morgan even tried to get him to sign for the Gunners, but the 24-year-old had the perfect response to his cheeky request.
Morgan has been a vocal critic of Sterling in the past, particularly over the machine gun tattoo on his leg which came to media attention just before last summer’s World Cup.
