Sounds like we’re doing with him what we did to Trev in that they had no intention to move away and have no destination lined up but are just being frozen out because the manager either doesn’t fancy them or the club need the money. The manager has every right to pick the players he thinks are best for the squad. Sterling was present for the entirety of the preseason, so Enzo clearly saw enough & decided (hopefully) he's surplus to requirements. mkh and Leeds nil 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s perfectly within his right. I’m just saying it’s kind of messed up that Sterling apparently had no idea ahead of time that he wasn’t fancied. Judging by that statement he\is reps just released he was under the impression that he had a decent preseason and was all ready to be a key player this season.

I can only imagine Enzo kept his cards close to his chest because of who the player is, unlike Chilwell & co. It's hard to see this situation ending any other way than a move away, most likely a loan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the Saudi’s come in I can’t see where he can go unless he dramatically cuts his wages. And as I’ve said here before, Sterling doesn’t seem the type to uproot his huge family and move to Saudi. He still harbors England National team ambitions as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They look fine without him. Today, last season also. He will leave but don't think we are in contention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 31,180 Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 ffs Pool on the verge of signing Gonçalo Inácio for only £38m Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 31,180 Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 and Pool also is buying Mamardashvili for £30m (Bournemouth paying £4m on top for a 1 year loan to get around the EPL rules that you cannot buy and loan out immediately to another EPL club, so he joins Pool permanently in 10 months) robsblubot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whats happening 1,668 Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 napoli lost 3-0 to verona. hopefully this will speed up the things around osimhen for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 (edited) I see Alisson's best years behind him; yes, a bit soon for a goalie, but that's what I see (I see him a lot for Brazil). So, them getting a promising goalie as well as a quality CB is worrying given the strength of their squad. They still need a mid tho. Reports from Brazil state that Brentford is signing gremio's 18yo winger Gustavo Nunes for somewhere in the 20m. He looks like a really interesting player, but one who needs yo take a step like Brentford before moving to a big club IMO.

Vesper 31,180 Posted August 18, 2024 Share Posted August 18, 2024 very few remotely available and acceptable CBs left on the board Bremer (crazy hard pull now) António Silva (release clause is now around £85m, so he is out) Gonçalo Inácio Piero Hincapié (likely going elsewhere) Ousmane Diomande Castello Lukeba Mohamed Simakan Dávid Hancko Cristhian Mosquera Murillo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
