After making his deadline day move from Chelsea, Raheem Sterling feels that switching from west to north London is the right move at this stage of his career.
The England international managed to complete a season-long loan move from the Blues just before the summer window shut, wrapping up our business after a busy few months by securing the services of a hugely decorated player with four Premier League winner’s medals under his belt.
And as he surveyed his options, Raheem felt that there was one club that was ideal for him to take the next step in his career with, and was delighted when we came calling.
Reflecting on his switch, he said: “I’m buzzing. It’s one where we left it late but it’s one I was hoping for. Looking at everything, I’m just like: ‘this is a perfect fit for me’, and I’m super happy that we got it over the line.

Took you long enough 🙄
May u shine like the way your happy to be here
Relieved that this one didn't have the usual "it was my lifelong dream to play for Arsenal and Theirry Henry is my idol" stuff
Totenham and Man Utd left
Great signing excited to see him play… 😁
I was waiting for this transfer deadline up to midnight to ensure that we have landed him in our team….please lets support him…considering that we have many games to play….he will be very important to us gunners….I found myself dancing and smiling late at 2AM 😂😂😂😂because of sterling….go and punish your former team now bro for not appreciating you….Maresca will regret to dump you

I am predicting a minimum of 5 clutch moments from Raheem this coming season!
Should have got osihmen or Toney as well city have a goalscorer Haaland we going to miss out again we always had top strikers wright bergkamp Henry now nothing
Bro cant stop smiling 😀
More Assist Than Goals.Assists Counts As Goal's.@Sterling @arsenal
This man says little but what he says is very big. What a classy person, love to have him at the Arsenal!
He must stop being selfish to share the ball with fellow players who are better place on the pitch to score than him.
I hope Martinelli can learn a few things from Sterling, especially how to make those dangerous, darting runs in behind the opposition defence.
Got a good feeling about this one 🤞🏾
The togetherness
I have a low expectations toward Raheem. Hopefully he'll prove me wrong.
Welcome to Arsenal, Raheem.
THE QUALITY IS PROVEN
CAN HE DELIVER GRAB YOUR CHANCE YOU GOT THIS 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾💯
Our right wing is crazy!!
I hope it works out for Raheem ,but he stands as much chance of success as a slug in a salt mine.
He is going to turn the narrative.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Def my fav signing of this window
Finished. Id rather we kept esr who is still young. I dont see how this will benefit us at all. Totally dissapointed with this window.
Seeing the desire in Raheem here to play for us, I’m super excited to see him in action for us. As he says, the fit is perfect and I think he’s going to make a great impact. Welcome to the Arsenal Raheem. Now go get that league trophy again !
It is amazing seeing the cannon on Raheem. He’s won everything and still 29, I wish him all the best. Last season, Cole Palmer fighting him and others to take penalties seems like a symptom of an awful team culture at Chelsea. Havertz, Jorginho and now Sterling snatched by Edu. I won’t be surprised if Mudryk or Fofana arrives in January 😅
They just gave us a demon. Sterling is about to cook. 15 goals 5 assists?
He looks happy 👌🏾🤩😁 My guy 👊🏾
Welcome to the Gunners family ♥️🤍✌🏽
That last 12hours of the windows was crazy!
Still carrying that Chelsea player signature hair style 😂. It's rare to see an arsenal player with that hairstyle 😂
Man’s never been this happy since city days, wish u all the best…glad u left that other club
❤
Perfect deal for arsenal and for him
permanent deal incoming
Super sterling
This is going to be a great deal. Nothing better than when someone has told you your no good or not in a managers plan as a player. Raheem villan ark is gunna be crazy
Trossard 2.0. 🎯
Sterling is better than nelson and nketiah combined.
Happy for him got to leave chelsea toxic place to be. Shouldnt be too hard to fit in since he has havertz jorg and arteta all here already.
Welcome 😅😮😢🎉😂❤
Why didn’t you ask him about the players he knows from Arsenal sake and rice and Jesus and Alex and Kai ❤😅😮😂🎉😢
