MoroccanBlue 5,385 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Think we will meet halfway at 45m. The wages IDK what will be but I imagine those are already sorted given we are trying to agree a price with City? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlen Correa 161 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Sterling playing at any other big league would cost €80m for EPL clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YorkshireBlue 3,280 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) If you actually sit and think about it for once in a long time we are being smart. Going for a proven Premier league player rather than some 1 season wonder. I think sterling is a brilliant player and will add a completely different attacking approach to our game. Some of his finals balls In a city shirt were incredible, say all you like about he was good because of that team but in that team he also showed some phenomenal solo plays and passes. Great players make a great team, and he's a great player the only reason he's leaving city is because foden and grealish will now take on that role and let's be honest. At the moment I would take sterling over either of them 2. Edited June 20, 2022 by Kong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played way more than Grealish, Mahrez and Jesus last season and was about on par in minutes with Foden and De Bruyne. If thats not being a regular, i don't know what is. 3 hours ago, Blue Armour said: Bit risky for the price being quoted. He's not a regular for City especially given how frustrating he can be in a City side that creates several openings for him to potentially score. He could be even worse over here. I feel the same. We bought a soon to be 28 y.o. declining proven failure in the PL for 100m+ A 50m winger who has produced numbers in EPL for years at a shitty liverpool, at an average City side and now at a great City side no matter the manager or system is by no means risky in comparison. I thnk ppl have short memories. When we played that terrible pool side in 2014 we had the best defense in the league by far and he ran rings around us, was basically a one man attack of all the rumoured winger signings like dembele, raphinha, gnabry he is by a huge margin the safest bet.

He does not get in their best team last season. He started more games if for instance Pep had a big CL game in the week then Pep would rotate in the weekend and start Sterling but the only reason he started more as the season went on was because Grealish was not really producing the goods. At the start of the season, Sterling couldn't get a sniff but in the big games, he would leave Sterling out. But one thing for sure is he is the most effective City player for goals for minutes. This has been the case for the past 5 seasons. I think he can be very inconsistent but I am a little surprised how much people are against the potential deal considering how many goals, assists and penalties he creates every season.

Still dont really buy that. He started Psg and Atleti in the cl, Spurs, Arsenal, Us and Liverpool in the league and Liverpool in the FA Semis. Anyways, not a hill i'm willing to die on, since i don't want him here to begin with 🙃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, not a hill i'm willing to die on, since i don't want him here to begin with 🙃 Liverpool he rotated some of his 'best' players. It was lower down his priority as three nights before they played Atletico away which he considered more important where KDB was a sub. Ederson, KDB, Ederson were all on the bench in that cup game. PSG game at City, Man City had a few injuries and they did well to comfortably win that game without no KDB and Foden but he may well not have started that had everyone been fit. PSG at PSG's ground I will give you that one. But when we played them at home he was on bench. Both games against Real he was on the bench. Both games against United he was on bench. Against us at the Bridge on the bench. He started one against Liverpool and on the bench but more my point being is he started to be trusted again towards end of season but generally speaking when season started he was out of favour. Also in their last game of season, baring in mind this is title decider and they had no game in week, he was left on bench. My point being is he is not considered a consistent starter. He earned it. Grealish started virtually every game for City when he joined. Sterling did not get that favourism last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 7m euro plus bonus is Milan's latest offer. That deal is now as good as done for me. They'll either increase the bonus and/or make them more achievable, or throw another 1-2m euros down. No way that deal falls apart now, not when the figures are that close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer is no. Abraham did not set the world alight when he was at Swansea. Could be for two reasons. One being that he wasn't just ready and two being that he was playing at inferior team. Broja showed more at Southampton than Abraham did at Swansea. Anyway 2 seasons later he scored 18 goals when he played his first full season. My point being is Broja has had an inconsistent this season but generally speaking he had a decent loan and I think he was better than Abraham was when he was on loan at Swansea. His goals were of real quality and if we don't give him a chance at least, just sends out the wrong message because I am sure he will get better.

MoroccanBlue 5,385 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Refuse to believe any rumor until preseason. There is no way we go into next season with only Havertz and Werner as the strikers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,385 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Selling Broja for 30m and then buying Richarlison for 70m is something I would expect from previous ownership. Hopefully both rumors are bollocks. Stats and bigbluewillie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, unless Tuchel simply doesn’t see him becoming a top striker it makes absolutely no sense to sell one of our most promising youngsters. The only way the club should reluctantly sell him to West Ham is in a deal for Rice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
