It was more the nature of the criticism than the criticism itself.Sterling deserved criticism over his performance at the euros. The issue was the amount of other players who avoided criticism and the bullshit they were writing over his bathroom taps or whatever it was.
It's the British press though. The other week they had a go at him taking an Easy Jet flight. Few weeks later they had a go at him for driving an expensive car to training. Said his teammates were angry at him as if footballers care about that sort of thing.
