It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

I put his name in the players to improve us thread but Serge Gnabry is having contract issues with Bayern would he be a good Sterling replacement?

Nkunku would be my first choice but Gnabry would be cheaper alternative in terms of fee at least.

Is he asking too much cash for Bayern's liking or just wants new challenge?

Home Grown as well, big plus for him

If he leaves it much longer, yes.

Can we sell him if he doesn’t want to go? If he doesn’t sign fir us what’s to stop him sitting in the bench for a year, although if he wants to go to the World Cup he might need to move.

Ye doubt he'd allow us to sell him he'll probably see a big signing on fee somewhere and leave us on a free

Wont accept the wages Bayern are offering him. Bayern will have to sell this summer or risk losing him on a free next summer.

It's Sterling we need to shift.

Absolutely no issue with Jesus staying if he wants to.

For Sterling to leave, we might have to accept less than £50m in his final year.

Agree, I just don't rate him and never have done. Fine against Burnley and CSKA but if that one chance comes against the top opposition at 0-0 you just know he isn't doing it. Just my opinion

sterling is fast, he can beat fullbacks with pace. but he's an extremely slow decision maker, and when he's making his decision his brain automatically tells him to slow down, so his pace is almost irrelevant as by the time he's decided what he wants to do he's already caught.

Best description iv heard he over thinks things

Wouldb't be against it if his wage demands are reasonable.

Like Jack is saying, we need a bigger squad. Hopefully we're up for a mega summer with 3-4 new players. Haaland, Alvarez, Midfielder, Left back and maybe even a new back up Keeper.

I agree that it’s cost us but Pep has always liked to work with smaller squads. If he is open to changing that, great (and we have the money), but he would need to make a philosophical change too

I’d be skeptical given the source. But if true, then Sterling must be on the way out

I’ve got money on River. Would quite like to see him get on and bring it home…

Really? I thought I was tripping was sure I’d seen him in the XI originally.

Do we really need a bigger squad or like Jack says do we just need to play the kids more so they become real options for us in a crunch? It’s very difficult for me to believe given the quality of our academy we don’t have 3-4 players each season who are good enough to play in the cups, home against relegation fodder, etc. Time and time again when kids get in to full strength sides they’re more than good enough to hold their own. It’s also good business, sell on values increase tremendously with first team experience.
