4) Sterling gets more chance of success
This move will surely be a good one for Sterling as well, with the youngster perhaps looking at the career of loyal club legend Steven Gerrard and thinking that staying at Anfield might not be the bets decision in terms of winning trophies. The former England captain left the club for LA Galaxy this summer, but notably nearly joined Chelsea earlier in his career (via BBC Sport) in a move which surely would have seen him lift more silverware. By joining City, Sterling is moving to a team that has won two Premier League titles, the FA Cup and the Capital One Cup in the last five seasons, while the Reds have been empty handed since winning the League Cup in 2012.
