Wingers mate, both can finish as well.

Raheem's only turned 18, he's fearless, lightening quick, sack full of tricks in his locker, plays with his head up and can finish. He makes things happen, even as a 17 year old kid playing in the Premier League this year.

Zaha's 20, he's quick, looks a top athlete, also has a bag of tricks, creates chances and can finish.

Exciting talents both. Enormous potential.

seen sterling play early on in season in live Liverpool games but not seen a lot of zaha, I know theres been a lot said about him so we will see how it goes, hey Fernandez we might give ur Brazilians a game after all WHEN we get to next world cup

You wont have seen much of Zaha as he's been playing in the championship and the coverage on the bbc is Shite

SKY have plenty of coverage of the Championship though. Zaha was just unplayable in the playoff against Brighton. A player, a young player, who can turn a game is footballing gold. Honestly, I thought that Brighton were the better side in the first leg. But when the game was close, you need a player to bring that magic to the table. Zaha did that in the second leg to turn it in Palace's favour.

I'm not England national side's biggest fan either. I get disillusioned by the money culture these days, its like sometimes the players and people in the game are distant from the fans. But I do admire good young players when they come through. Sterling and Zaha are very good examples of a decent investment in youth academies in this country.

I see JT was again allowed to have a bit part and pick up the Europa League Trophy last night. I wonder how long Chelsea will be allowed to keep the trophy before UEFA turn round and take it away from them, saying 'He didn't play no part in the game so he shouldn't have collected the trophy' ? I doubt if they will but I wouldn't be at all surprised if they had fallen foul of some law that has never been invoked because of the actions of JT. Surely JT should have respected that Lamps was playing captain last night, and he should stepped back and allowed him to pick up the trophy after the season he's had.
I think Lamps should have been allowed to enjoy that moment as it was possibly his final game for the club in a European competition.

So maybe Man united should give back the premiership title back cos it was sir alex who lifted the trophy not there captain

its always happened dont know why the media are getting there knickers in a twist if it was anyone but john terry there wouldnt be a problem with it

As a matter of fact John Terry (and the other Chelsea players who changed into playing kit) were acting in compliance with UEFA match regulations which state that any player who wishes to attend a UEFA trophy presentation or lift a UEFA trophy must be wearing full match kit. Full marks to Chelsea for following the rules!

thanks guys I apologise to anyone who took offence at my comment.

they create history by making a shocking defence of their champions league triumph, its a funny old game !

Champions of Europe! We kno.... aaahh you know the rest
