Arsene Wenger: "For me Sterling is a top-class player. It is a good buy for Man City. It is an expensive one but they can afford it."

LOL. Our Chief Accountant has spoken. We can afford it so no problems boys.

Working in Liverpool with a few LFC fans and by and large their attitude is "You got a player you want and need. We got rid of a player who didn't want to be here and got a good price. You probably paid over the odds but you felt it was worth it and could afford it." Quite a sensible attitude among proper match-going fans.

Sterling medical in morning according to BBC and then to fly out to meet up with squad.

Thank God we didn't buy back Boateng, he'd manage to get himself injured on a flight

 

[Dribble]

exactly...couldn't give a fuck if he never plays for them again

I'd actually welcome it!

i love this boy , but he really needs space to run into , hes gonna look a diffrent player stood on the edge of the area with his hands on his hips waiting for his turn to pass the ball 10 feet sideways ,
we need to up the pace a bit to use him to his best

 

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

Licckle ol' city aren't a threat to them remember? We mean fuck all to them that's why they celebrated the derby win (many still are for that matter) like a cup final win.

Believe me the rags in work know who the threat to them is and now see us as the ones to catch in many ways.

I disagree. He's excellent in tight spaces, especially in comparison to Navas, and leaves people for dead from a standing start.

Another benefit will be he that he attracts two markers leaving space for our other players to penetrate.

Your describing Bale. Sterlings good in tight spaces he has great feet.

I am hoping when he signs we get an unbiased report on this lad and why he cost so much people like Carragher talking bollocks ""I think the extra money comes from the fact that Man City are so desperate for English players, and Liverpool have exploited that."

No we have paid more than we should because the idiots running liverpool put a 25% sell on clause in there when bought from QPR.

i think Carragher's hurting the most out of all the know nothing ex dippers on TV

Someone has dared to put two fingers up to the mighty Loserpool and know one from that place past and present knows what to do other than blame someone else. Comedy gold

I see the vile scousers are now making threats against sterlings daughter! They really are the lowest of the low! Welcome to the glory days raheem! The days of playing for that pile of shite is behind you!

Indeed, I read today that the Scoucers think every other team in the PL will boo him everytime he gets the ball. Do they not know how rediculous they are sounding. Deluded muppets with no sense of humility

2:25 was nice

 

[PistonBlue]

John Aldridge on SSN, and I'm paraphrasing here tbh
"Raheem Sterling is shit" and then some other jibberish about money

 

[East Level 2]

Radio 4 this morning: "Who will you buy with the £49 Million?"
What the fuck do these fuckwits have instead of brains?
Almost 9 million of the initial 44 million goes to QPR and the other 5 million is for add-ons which won't be paid for several years (and will be well worth it if we have to pay up). Liverpool have £35 Million to spend now, not £49 Million.

 

[aguero93:20]

No no no. You can't compare the fee to that of Andy Carroll, you have to compare it to Sergio's or some other fee from years ago that now looks like an incredible bargain. You should know the fucking rules by now.

Colin Bell cost £80k.

 

[JustAnotherCityFan]

His acceleration and dribbling speed is a thing of beauty.

 

[Clevers]

We better return him quick....the greatest football knowledge has spoken ...

That's quite funny because he says the top players I played AGAINST not who I played WITH.

 

[Vienna_70]

Rags on Facebook are contradicting themselves, surprisingly.

On the one hand, they're saying Sterling is overrated, and then they're claiming that he's only using City as a stepping-stone to Real Madrid or Barcelona.

Well I never!

It does annoy me that we have all our best players poached by Real. Oh wait that's them!
