If I'm going to daydream about Gillian Anderson, I'm not going to ask someone else to tell me what colour lingerie she's wearing.

Black

 

[FantasyIreland]

It’d be north of £100m, I’m pretty sure of that

Yeah,no ones paying that.

 

[Tugay One Cup]

For the reasons we both understand......You wont answer any questions,i know that.

The question was put to you because there's a gaping hole in your master plan. You've tried to palm it off onto two different people because you know you don't have an answer.

Black

Always.

The question was out to you because there's a gaping hole in your master plan. You've tried to palm it off onto two different people because you know you don't have an answer.

You are genuinely puddled.

I actually felt Sterling was better last season than in 17/18.

The question was posed because Grealish was suggested as a better player,which i agree with.

So,hypothetically,we would be far better off in more ways than one if we could find a buyer for Sterling.

While under contract here.....I dont think there would be a queue because his wages wouldn't represent the productivity and quality returned.

I mean, he's paid less than players like Hazard, De Gea, Pogba and Griezmann, so it's all relative.

I'm also not sure about Grealish as a potential replacement (not that I think Sterling needs replacing in the squad, even if he might benefit from some time out of the team). Grealish has many fine qualities but I don't see him playing the wide forward role in a Guardiola team at all

Yeah the shit for 18 mths line is a lie

Would we not get more for Sterling if he were to be sold to make way?

No. Obviously not.

A. Sterling's stock is as low as it has been for 2 or 3 years.
B. The market is in the worst state it has been in for years
C. Who is gonna spend silly money on Sterling this summer?

We'd have to pay more money for a guy who is only 1 year younger, is far less professional and has more off field issues, and has only had 1 season of top quality form. ANd we would be ditching a club legend who has had a few weeks of bad form and maybe 1 season of sub-par form, but before that was better than Grealish is now.

He was out of form from about the October. His goal return was decent so people will say he played well. He didn’t and hasn’t done consistently for that long now. Plenty of goals and people think it means he’s not played badly. Spurs at home he didn’t score but was very good, he was actually using his best asset and leaving their fullback for dead again and in turn creating space for others. So bloody rare to see him do it though these days.
