Manchester City might have suffered their very first defeat of the season at the hands of Chelsea last weekend but this game is in the limelight for all the wrong reasons.
A couple of people on social media fought a footage of the game where a couple of Chelsea fans were seen hurling racist abuses at City forward Raheem Sterling.
And ever since then, Raheem Sterling has been in the eye of the storm.
Chelsea have taken swift action to ban a couple of the fans who were involved in the incident but those people have since come out to deny all the allegations.

Manchester City have also come out to condemn the whole issue while Raheem Sterling has taken a totally different stance on the whole issue claiming that it was, in fact, the media who need to stop differentiating.
Raheem Sterling wrote a post on social media putting forward his thoughts and a large of people have since come out to show support for the player and slam the press.
But it seems that vocal Arsenal supporter Piers Morgan does not particularly agree with Raheem Sterling’s views and in a tweet, he has invited the England international to be a part of ITV’s Good Morning Britain for a ‘fair hearing’.
Hi Raheem @sterling7 – want to come on @GMB to discuss racism in football? Don't agree with everything you say about it, but I admire you for speaking out & can promise a very fair hearing.
I'm keen to be a force for good in this debate, not a barrier to change. Piers— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 10, 2018
Raheem Sterling has already been interviewed by the police but will he accept this ‘fair hearing’ request from Piers Morgan.
