When I was 20, I could score more sitters than I missed. I don't expect there to be vast improvements in his finishing. Either you have good shooting technique or you don't. His finishing is no better after about 3 years, so don't expect it to be wildly different in the next 3 years. He shoots with his heel! It's ridiculous!

Well considering at a Similar age Ronaldo and Alexis Sanchez had less goals and assists, I believe finishing can, and his certainly will be improved.

It's such a same fans are influenced by the media into thinking Sterling isn't going to be a world class player.
 
Meh, if you wish to defend the indefensible then so be it. Txiki is a genius and all his signings and appointments will be of great benefit to our club.

My job as a fan is to want what's best for the club, which isn't always defending every player and signing, don't be ridiculous.

I've backed up plenty of posts with why I think he's dross. Poor passing, crossing, decision making, dribbling, finishing.

Those who think he's not seem to purely back it up with "he's only 20". Now who's the 'fucking genius' if all you can do is repeatedly state his age?

My job as a fan is not to turn on young players who's progression might be affected by negative reactions to his mistakes. Remember, the only people who don't make mistakes are the people who do nothing.

At this stage we have no idea if he will or won't be. His play doesn't tell us either way.
 
Just because you can type the words "poor passing, crossing, decision making, dribbling, finishing" doesn't make them true or facts. Maybe if you were actually more of a fucking genius and less of a gobshite you'd know that.

Deary me, personal insults. Bravo. And again some good solid arguments from you that he isn't infact shite at crossing, dribbling, passing and shooting. Thanks for that.
 
The fee isn't his fault. Neither is the fact we went into the season with 2 strikers with a recent history of injuries.

The only question I have is why when we are signing up a bunch of players who we hardly ever hear of again until they leave, are we not picking up the Sterling's and the Stones' while they are there for a few million apiece.

No problem. I'm glad to have obliged. I'm terribly sorry though that gobshite offended you. Maybe I should've just called your posts dross and shite.
 
The dippers couldn't believe their luck when we paid 50m for Sterling.

We have spent 120 million on Sterling, Bony and Mangala. Let that sink in.

And if at the end of the year the three contribute towards a league title and maybe more then I'll be glad we did.

I think only Silva and Hazard created more scoring opportunities than Sterling last year. Maybe those aspects of his game aren't as bad as you would like to make out.
