Sterling’s contract - three year extension confirmed

[FantasyIreland]

Well unlike you (master of the snide comment) Im not out to catch anybody, just giving a genuine opinion.
I can simplify it though, I hope the powers that be at Madrid dont decide they want Raz after his performance in Spain.
Hope that is now clear enough.

I'm just happy you can now sleep with the light off.

In the long run I hope players see the value in maintaining their legendary City status with the fans after they leave. Ultimately those are the people effected most when a player (Milner and Yaya?) departs in acrimonious circumstances

I'm also sure that there are plenty of lucrative and interesting roles available after retirement within the City Football Group that will be primed for ex City players

Not being funny but what do you mean by maintaining their legendary status with the fans.

If Sterling was hypothetically motivated to run his contract down

 

[Easy]

If he doesn’t sign he’ll be sold next summer, it’s as simple as that. He’s worth £60m+ with a year left and that’s a conservative estimate.

Don’t think he’s at the level of Barca or Real yet but he will get there. Real sell Ronaldo and bring in their next galatico, Raheem Sterling lol Their fans would protest. Barca have Dembele and he’s doing really well right now.

Don’t get me wrong I love Raheem and have defended him since he’s joined when most of the forum wanted his head. He’s a player with world class potential but is still young. He’s had one great season and is continuing his form this season. Also Valverde and Lopetegui are not the managers to unlock Raheem’s potential, with the latter likely getting the sack soon.

So I’m confident he’ll sign a new deal as there is no better place for him right now. He could stay another 3-4 years and still be young enough to go to Spain also by that time he’ll probably be a true galatico delivering the goods year after year.

If he doesn’t sign his new contract by January I’d put him up for sale then. Just because city ain’t daft regarding contracts an we would of offered him a very fair new improved contract.

Which players, apart from Messi, do you think Barcelona and Real Madrid have that are much better than him?

I agree the club must know how much he wants we either give him the contract or decide it's to much in which case we have to sell asap to maximise his transfer value. We don't want him in the last year of his contract where he is in position to sit tight and see his contract out and lose him for nothing, in my opinion the club must make the decision now.

In a nutshell..my sentiments also, plus we have Diaz

Lets not turn into Liverpool, Ibe territory that

 

[trevorriley]

£120m for him, then turn to scousers and say "so we got ripped off"

Even if we sell for 60 Million basically even taking into account wages he has been a free....

And a free who has won the club multiple trophies

I’d take that every time

Plus it pissed off the scousers big style just buying him and that's priceless.

I wouldn't blame the chap if he fucked off out of it and brought his family with him.

The point is, I doubt they would paid what’s required, when they can pay similar or more for a bigger name like Hazard for example.

The Daily Mail story was so inevitable...

No idea whether Sterling will sign or not, hopefully he will, but if he didn't wouldn't Sancho be the best replacement being homegrown as well, otherwise we are going to struggle for homegrown as I expect Delph to leave in the next window or two.
