RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Probably a small rumor that will die down eventually..Much as I'd love to see someone like Sterling playing for us, Liverpool are not stupid.. they wouldn't sell directly to a rival club.Spurs yes, but Liverpool is another story. We can do Torres and Meireles to Sterling if we want to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadavTKL 1,787 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 I know plenty of Liverpool fans that think that if it wasn't for his contract, he'd be going for close to Bale money.they're funny. Bayern, Real, Bacelona would never think about getting him now even for 30m pounds and so does Jose (imo), while PSG have other targets and City cant pay so much with FFP. So who the hell whould pay this money (close to Bale money like they said)? Real were stupid enough to pay 100m on Bale, they would never do it again for another over-hyped British. Sterling is not even hot or scores lots of goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strike 7,486 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 Perfect signing imo. Home grown. Right Wing. Would add that extra zip in attackCostaHazard Willian/Oscar SterlingMatic Fabregas Would be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 £50m might be slightly excessive but I would go for it. His true value is closer to £40m though (considering his potential and HG status).To answer your question earlier as well - yeah, IMO a attacking midfield strata of Hazard - Willian - Sterling is very exciting and would probably be our best if we did sign Raheem.£40-50m for Sterling? That's absurd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azul 1,615 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 This kid is very overrated. 50m for him? LOL add 25m to that 50m and we can get Bale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Price on today's market is crazy, especially if it comes with 'English' and 'HG' tags. So I would not that surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 £40-50m for Sterling? That's absurd!It really isn't that absurd when the likes of Cuadrado and Willian are going for £30m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 It really isn't that absurd when the likes of Cuadrado and Willian are going for £30m.Doesn't mean it's right. Sterling hasn't done anything noteworthy to even warrant a price tag close to 20-25m, never mind 40-50m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cármenes 21 Posted April 3, 2015 Share Posted April 3, 2015 It really isn't that absurd when the likes of Cuadrado and Willian are going for £30m.True that. And Sterling is a top shelf talent, that's the money you gotta pay for real talents these days. Would very much prefer him to Bale tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough, but the 40m would be based on his potential more than anything. A 20 year old Englishman who is one of the best in the league in his position (winger) will always be priced nearer to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The footballing world is all around crazily inflated, but it's clubs like Chelsea's own fault and nothing in the future seems to be taking the prices down. Might as well just accept it, that's the market of today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 20 year old Englishman who is one of the best in the league in his position (winger) will always be priced nearer to that.Paying 40m for a player with a potential, one who has put few good performances and scored some goals here and there doesn't seem like the brightest of ideas. Even Hazard didn't cost us this much.It isn't right? What scale of judgement of right and wrong are we talking about here? The footballing world is all around crazily inflated, but it's clubs like Chelsea's own fault and nothing in the future seems to be taking the prices down. Might as well just accept it, that's the market of today.Just because we paid 30m for Willian and Cuadrado, doesn't mean we have to do the same with Sterling, especially not when he hasn't done anything of note in football yet. I know they are going to be inflated prices around and there's a way to go about spending the money wisely. For that kind of amount, we could get someone more useful from abroad or something.
