Creative: Sterling notched his 3rd assist in 10 games this month, taking home the League's Young Player of the Month award
2nd. There's not much more I could have asked for going into December. The guys have been in tremendous form, digging deep to get through some tough games. We've got a lot still to do in Europe, as we lost both of our group games this month, meaning we need to win our next tie against Steaua in December to ensure we get through: we're only 2 points ahead of Zenit, and we need to be clinical to ensure qualification.

Mario Balotelli (2)
Standard Chartered Player of the Month:
Mario Balotelli
Mario has been top-class this month, scoring at critical times for us to keep the rest of the side in the game, and it's been crucial. His attitude has really improved, and it's good to see: he's willing to put in a shift in front of goal, and both he, and the team, are certainly benefitting from it.
