Raheem Sterling makes Manchester City vow ahead of Premier League title decider

Raheem Sterling has claimed Manchester City will go all out to make it three titles in a row if they end up back-to-back champions at Brighton .

The newly-crowned Footballer of the Year believes the sky is the limit under boss Pep Guardiola.

And the City and England striker reckons three in a row has to be the target – even though Liverpool and the rest of the top six will chase them hard next season.

“If you've won it two years in a row and have the same players, the same manager, I don't see why you shouldn't be looking to win it again.

“Nothing has changed. Other teams will be trying even harder to win but at the same time, if you can win it twice in a row,then have a chance to win it a third time.

“I think you have to look at that and try and win it because you are creating history.”

Sterling, 24, was voted the Football Writers Footballer of the Year after an excellent individual campaign, in which he has scored 23 times for Guardiola's men.

But he reckons he's still got room to improve despite an outstanding campaign for club and country.

“It's always the case that I'm looking to improve," added Sterling. "I'm a professional, 24 years of age, being in title runs and winning trophies is the most important thing as a player.

“Each year you try to do better than your previous, that's exactly what I'm doing and for sure I want to get better.

“There's more that I set out to do. This is the stuff I want to achieve and for sure I'll do my best to get there.”
