Ian Wright questions Graham Potter's 'confusing' misuse of Raheem Sterling at Chelsea after being played as a wing-back... as the England star struggles for goals ahead of their Premier League clash with Arsenal

Ian Wright has questioned Graham Potter's 'confusing' misuse of forward Raheem Sterling at Chelsea ahead of their Premier League clash with Arsenal.

The England star joined the Blues for £50million from Premier League rivals Manchester City over the summer, but has only scored five and assisted two in 16 appearances this season.

Sterling, who became one of Europe's top attackers under Pep Guardiola at City, has been utilised in a variety of positions since Potter's arrival at Stamford Bridge, including at wing-back.
