Not su much bad, I think us especially will be just fine, and we had little choice I just don't see it as a particulary great deal for any party. I find it a very odd transfer.So a bad deal all around?

Let's try to keep things fairly civilised on here, please. No need to be having digs at other posters.

He might want to move back to LondonNot su much bad, I think us especially will be just fine, and we had little choice I just don't see it as a particulary great deal for any party. I find it a very odd transfer.
How reliable is this source though? I won't believe it until it's on the OS!
Tier 3 at best, need to wait until Romano taps it in at the far post.

Maybe ,though in the past he's said London wouldn't be good for him. He's older now and that may have changed but I don't think he was particularly missing it.He might want to move back to London
It's about the right time for both city and sterling to move on, it's been done the right way and no bitterness or name-calling and blaming anybody, plus the club got back their investment from Liverpool so again good bit of business
sterling, was not everybody's cup of tea, and It's easy to pick out why ? But nobody can say he was not 100%, and he did give everything to help the club and pep, but for me sterling was not a natural striker and should not have been labelled as a striker, this is where the problem started with sterling and the pressure it put on him under pep
the club should have not just been happy with just going with a single striker in aguero for 4 or 5 years because we all knew aguero was injury prone, so it put the pressure on the others to score the goals and sterling was one of them
it's funny but sterling did score plenty of goals, but every time he missed it was the miss that stuck out the most
good luck to sterling, and you won us plenty of silverware and earned our respect

Fair enough. I thought it was a great deal for at least us and Sterling. And a good deal for Chelsea.Not su much bad, I think us especially will be just fine, and we had little choice I just don't see it as a particulary great deal for any party. I find it a very odd transfer.
We get 50 million for a player with 1 year left who's not happy with the role he finds himself in.
Sterling gets paid the most money he has ever been paid. (Apparently more than we were offering) and potentially a starting role.
I say potentially ( as Chelsea's manager is kinda like Pep.) You have to proof you deserve it. Your money cost don't matter. But still.
It's good for Chelsea coz they had to change something up.
As for step up. There are no step ups from Real, Barca, Bayern, Liverpool and us. As it currently stands, those 5 are the top teams in Europe. Maybe not Barca at this very moment.
When you play at one of type teams, there are only lateral moves. But you can challenge yourself by going to a slightly lesser team and willing them to greatness.
So overall I thought it was a great deal for everyone.
