Raheem Sterling has insisted that he is not being weighed down by expectation after becoming the most expensive player in English football in the summer.
The England international completed a £49m move from Liverpool to Manchester City earlier this year after a contract dispute at Anfield.
Sterling has netted eight times in 22 appearances for Man City this season and the 21-year-old has claimed that his transfer fee does not enter his mind when he takes to the field.
"It's gone out of my head now. I'm in a new place and I feel like I'm at home," Sterling told the Manchester Evening News.
"When I come into training I don't think of that fee, I just think about coming in and doing the best for my club, trying to repay the people who have had faith in me. That's something I will be trying to do in the near future."
Sterling scored double figures in each of his last two seasons at Liverpool, whom he joined from Queens Park Rangers in 2010.
