Raheem Sterling

[TheIceMan 596]

Don't like him very much, and Yes he is highly overpriced, but got to admit that under Morinho he can become one of the world's very best if not a messi or ronaldo level, atleast Hazard, Neymar or Suarez level!!!

City don't have a clue, do they? Seem to be splashing the cash around just to get HG players.

Paying 50m for a player who hasn't even done anything of note is farcical.

City are idiots like their fans. Go on Bluemoon, ANY player linked with them, whatever the price is "worth it, great addition" theyre trying to justify paying £50m for Sterling, I even seen on there once Sterling is as good as if not better than Pogba and De Bruyne right now, a MUST BUY.

I lol'd hard

[milka 3,350]

Sterling ?! Another player of them ?! oh please !

I hate to buy player of Liverpool last years, everyone knows why .

Griezmann . That's it .

INTER EYE SALAH

Inter Milan are set to make a move if Chelsea winger Mohamed Salah rejects another year at Fiorentina, report the Daily Mail.

The Egyptian has impressed since switching to Florence on loan in January, and the Serie A side are keen to take up their option of another season for the player."

CHELSEA INTERESTED IN STERLING

Sky sources understand that Chelsea are extremely interested in Liverpool forward Raheem Sterling. The club highly rate the 20-year-old but will not bid more than £40million for him.

Please be true.. They'd be perfect deals.

Sterling to replace Cuadrado who could be included in a deal for Pogba ?

Sterling + Pogba + Falcao would be absolutely amazing.

[Special Juan 27,439]

Regardless of reports saying City have bid for him, I would be absolutely amazed if we haven't approached Liverpool/his agent about him.

I don't know if it's just me, but I think Sterling's ceiling of ability is sky high. I truly think, under the right mentor, he can become one of the world's best players. It's not out of a misplaced sense of loyalty because he's English either.

I think being an English player is a double edged sword. Sometimes it makes you overhyped and sometimes, like in this case, it's a deterrent for people to rate them accurately. I think if Sterling wasn't English, he'd have a lot more admirers than current. One of the main reasons people aren't keen right now is because of how he's acting to leave Liverpool, but hey wouldn't you?

That being said, I think Chelsea's stance is great. He hasn't shown enough to justify £50m, though I think one day he will. I hope Raheem chooses us over City, but the lure of City's money can be too much for these kids sometimes.

Agree 100% with this. I have said it time and time again that this kid under Mourinho could be unbelievably good. The lure of London and also us as a team and Jose is also a massive factor just as much as money is to City. A deal of 35-40M isn't beyond the realms of possibility for this kid and we can offer him everything he wants. I would love to see us get him and replicate the threat we have on the other side with Hazard....The pace, the directness and the main thing...a massive threat.

What I don't want to see is us go for stop-gap players, those players won't win you the CL, they will do a job to a certain extent but they wont add what we need on top of what we want to build upon. We have to be seen to be moving on and getting a lot stronger, not stagnating by buying people like Dembele etc...We need top quality and this kid at the age he is at, under the guidance of the best manager in the world there could be huge things ahead.

Now let's play FIFA...

If we get Sterling. Omg Omg Omg, dream signing for me. I love the way he plays.

This is the key point.

It's all good having squad players for depth, but we're not shy of that at the moment either. With guys like Ramires, RLC, Cuadrado & Willian in the fold we still have players to play these dead-rubber games and the league cup matches at stages that don't require our first XI.

We've been down that path where we signed guys like Benayoun and Meireles, and despite the latter helping to get us to that CL final it's not enough. Signing Sterling keeps us as one of the major forces in England and hopefully Europe.

You're also right about the London factor. Let's not forget, Liverpool picked him up from QPR so he's definitely got a sense of home in London.

Im sure we could upgrade both BANE AND Cahill - Even now I'd play Zouma over Cahill but I know I'm living in gaga land I'm still dreaming of Varane/Zouma team up.

Bringing Sterling here is only a question of how big a dick Liverpool is and unfortunately they are quite a bit.

If they value Sterling above 40m I feel we simply won't bother. The only way for the transfer to happen is that nobody decided to play their game and/or Sterling gets pissed and they lower their price.
