Raheem Sterling | Arsenal Player (on loan)

[madloaf]

All 3 are bang average at best

Saka isn't average is he. Havertz definitely is.

I disagree, but I respect your opinion.

It makes a ton of sense for Arsenal. Martinelli is a back-up quality player, at best. Sterling-Havertz-Saka is as good as any front three in the league.

Havertz is nothing special

Think this is a very good move from arsenal especially if it’s a loan with no obligation. Can only benefit them. arteta and sterling are very close as he worked very closely with sterling whilst at city.

Say what you want about sterling but he is an effective football player who will contribute with goals

 

[WestGorton]

Good move for Sterling even as a loan or anything to be honest. Chelsea is well, yet to be understood.

Are they signing Harvey Elliott as well?

Seems like the deal will go through with Arsenal paying £120k a week to Sterling and Chelsea paying the remainder of his wages, which I'd imagine are a lot.

Arsenal should hold out. They don’t particularly need him and Chelsea want rid. No fee, pay 10% of his wages.

Pep seemed happy to see him after we played Chelsea in pre-season

Happy to see him certainly doesn't mean happy to coach him again

While I'm not happy that Arsenal are adding more depth, I'm pleased Raz seems to have landed on his feet for now away from the Chelsea circus.

It'd be nice to see him enjoying his football again - just as long as they stay in second place.

He will drive you mad. One of the most infuriating players I have seen at City.

Arsenal would be a good move for him and Arsenal.

Arteta worked with him a lot and at his peak, he's better than Martinelli. Main issue is that his peak was 3-4 years ago.

Well it provides cover as Gabby Jesus is injured so we need someone else to come into the team and blast the ball over the bar from 3 yards out.

Good reply however it seems a good thing for a season loan for Arsenal.

Yeah he can play on the left or right so would enable Arteta to rest/rotate Saka.

Why are you pleased he's doing well? I don't get why some fans have an attachment with a player like him when he was probably the player with the least connection with the club and its fans.

He's not up to the level you need now, very misguided signing, your head of recruitment has made a mistake, not alone, we've signed Nunes and Phillips but they're just about the only mistakes we've made. Sterling is in a par with your signing of Pepe but at least it's only a loan, he'll be nowhere near your match day team come December.
