The Melbourne Cricket Ground can be an intimidating place at the best of times – just ask England’s cricketers.

If the setting wasn’t daunting enough for Raheem Sterling ahead of Manchester City’s game against Real Madrid, boos could be heard around the 100,000-seater venue when the England man’s name was read out.

We know there are a lot of Liverpool fans in Australia, and it seems a fair few are still up in arms about the transfer saga that preceded his move to City.

At least Sterling’s got former team-mate Mario Balotelli fighting his corner.
