It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[pudge]

If you’re not comparing similar situations I’m not sure what your point is other than having a small dig at the club ?

My point is we have more previous for selling low than not, that's a fact not a dig.

So does possibly selling Sterling, with a year left, potentially down the pecking order, for less than his true value would be surprise me? No. If he wants out the club facilitate that at their behest not the bottom lines.

Hardly a dig, again.

You can't really argue that other than trying to prove you're a bigger blue or something by nitpicking.

Sterling and Jesus go, you need a replacement. Tolmies hinted at Felix for a while with his vids

I like him but that's like replacing a toothbrush with a lawnmower.

I know he's a United fan channel but Goldbridge Aka Brent called this awhile back he actually gets some decent info

Chuck enough shit and some will stick

Why do some posters think that if a club is interested in a City player he will go and as a fanbase we panic?

Is there still a belief that the history clubs can tell us what players they want and we just go along with it? If that’s our policy it has worked out quite well in the past few years.

Evolution is nice but every now and again all clubs have a bit of a clear out particularly as a lot of top players want to move on a free after they have run their contracts down.

We actually lose very few players we want to keep and if players put playing every game over winning trophies maybe it’s best they go anyway.

We’ve got to get someone with a bit of pace in. We don’t have any traditional ‘wingers’ to stretch the play if Jesus and Sterling leave. I think someone like Raphinha, Leao

Possibly Chelsea are using the Mane fee Bayern payed as a bargaining tool.

 

[Cobwebcat]

We buy Phillips for £50m and Chelsea buy Sterling for £35m? Absolutely not.

Like for like it’s ridiculous but how long is left on the contract and wage demands affect the transfer price too.

 

[RayCTID]

Why? They just got taken over with wealth fund backing of close to £96 billion.

Length of contract for starters and Sterling isn't a player they desperaetly need. Arsenal are trying to haggle with Gabriel Jesus

 

[Georgian Maestro]

We have him already. Cole Palmer.

Cole Palmer has started 1 premier league game.

We all have high hopes for him but you can't expect Palmer to replace a seasoned international like Sterling in this team. It would be a huge gamble for the club and it wouldn't be fair on the lad.

I don’t know why anyone is baulking at the £35m. The player doesn’t want to be here, we don’t want him, he’s ok £300k a week minimum, Chelsea don’t really need him.

It’s totally different to Jesus and no different to Mane.

It’s a good deal all round. We get £35m cash, save £15m wages for his final year. We get back what we paid for him and he has been a magnificent servant for us.

We got value for what we paid and we are getting value for his sale whilst already having his replacement here.

Are you bringing logic to this discussion, lol...of course its the right move...Mane is the perfect example of what needs to be done...
