Raheem Sterling made his first start for Feyenoord on Sunday, but the evening ended with mixed emotions for the England international. After two prior appearances as a substitute, the former Manchester City and Chelsea winger was named in the starting XI for the Eredivisie clash against NAC Breda, lasting just over an hour before being withdrawn. Despite the restricted minutes, Sterling is adamant that his physical condition is rapidly improving as he seeks to rediscover his best form in Rotterdam.
