You have your opinions, I have mine. My opinion is that Sterling is overrated and has benefitted greatly due to Pep’s system, like Pedro did at Barcelona . Put him in a normal team and he would be nowhere near as good. He hasn’t scored for England for a long time, since 2015 I believe. I have no problem keeping him if he wants to stay but if he is being greedy and asking for money that he doesn’t deserve then let him go. Pep will hold the same view, he got rid of Ronaldinho, Deco, Etoo and Ibrahimovic, do you think he would be afraid of getting rid of Sterling if he feels he is getting too big for his boots?
Benefitting from Pep's system is exactly what we want! We are not a normal team and Sterling plays for us.
