I’m not sure how you can still be missing the point this badly python. Wayne Rooney not being prone to having a quick vac of the gaff is absolutely irrelevant.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Missing the point how? The whole debate as to this apparent media fuelling racism stems from the negative press of sterling. Something again I come back to which Beckham and Rooney received along with other stars from celebrities etc etc. Sterling gets targeted I agree however not IMO because of his skin colour. If it is then why aren't other black players getting the same treatment as Sterling?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sterling literally just pointed one out in Adarabioyo and Foden reporting. Articles about Lukaku, Pogba, young Sturridge, young Zaha, Lingard all have the same tones as the reporting of Adarabioyo and Sterling. They follow a rhetoric that young black players are greedy/lazy, have a bad attitude, like partying or think they’re a rapper, or spend too much money on flash things. Sterling is at one end of the spectrum but all the players mentioned, and more, are victim to it.

You can see yourself how it influences people’s opinions. Look at ttliv’s comments. He is convinced Sterling has a bad attitude because ‘everyone knows he’s lazy and arrogant’. I pointed out people only think that because of how tabloids report him. He then makes up some stupid excuse that he must be lazy and arrogant because ttliv thinks he’s lazy for England. You also see it mixed in with fan perceptions of the likes of Lingard and Pogba - they care too much about their ‘haircuts and silly celebrations’ but when Jimmy Bullard was celebrating wildly in his own way people loved it. Why? Jimmy Bullard is more relatable to the middle aged generation that attack Lingard and Pogba.

It is not every black player, you are right. It is young black players who are confident within themselves and how they express/portray themselves.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Pogba and Lukaku are lazy though. Same as Berbatov and Ozil who are/were lazy to and got abuse for it. Berbatov
Secondly you can't really care bullard to lingard etc. Two pretty different eras where twitter, facebook etc were not half as prevelant they are these days

So what about the other high profile black players. Why don't they pick on them also?
---------------------
if your fuelling racism and not wanting to be blatant do you pick on every black footballer you can find? is that a serious question about a article on fuelling racism?

Oh my god are you serious? You really are looking desperate now and clutching at straws

I’ve seen an article about the Arsenal players using “hippy crack” and they reeled out when Sterling did it over 3 years ago. For example.

Anyway having a few beers is more detrimental to your health as a professional football player than inhaling some laughing gas.

You've come up with feck all to suggest it's racially fuelled or anything. Whatever you throw at me I can throw right back at you in regards to other footballers etc. All because of the colour of his skin is the reason you believe it's racially fuelled.
You sir are just another snowflake who loves to play the race card.

F .u ck off with your snowflake sh...te, such a weal a$$ excuse.

The twitter thread alone is more than enough to show how wrong you are python, and when so many high profile black players are saying it then it gives the argument some real weight.

Well yes, what gives you the right to speak for them?
Why not listen to them, their experiences and actually aknowledge the problem so many speak of actually exists.

To me, and I may be worng here, but I don't hink you're black? So how can you claim somethign isn't racist when you have not suffered from it?
