Raheem Sterling continued his impressive start to the campaign with two goals in the 3-0 victory over Luton Town on Friday night.
According to Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino, Sterling deserves full credit for his Chelsea revival this season.
Pochettino said: “He deserves the full credit for his performance. I’m so pleased for him because he told me that it was a difficult season for him last season and I’m very pleased when the player is happy and when an offensive player can score and assists, for us it’s the best feeling.’
Sterling said: “It’s a target I had to set myself [being Chelsea’s top scorer this season], it’s something I know I can do. If I’m 100% at something, I know what I can do and that’s what I’m doing this year, just 100% focus on scoring goals and helping my team. I want to get back to being obsessed with football.”
