Raheem Sterling | Arsenal Player (on loan)

[deano ou812]

Just wish he got his last minute winner in front of the Kop I was craving every time we’d go there. Good luck Raz.

Maybe he will with chelsea,would still boil piss amongst that shower ..

 

[waspish]

Really didn’t want him to go and especially to a rival!

Some will see now from the outside how truly great he was for us because we will see the goals the assists now as a negative and he will score plenty he will get loads of assists and be Chelsea’s best player!

Thanks for everything Raheem and good luck

So long Raz - it’s been a pleasure watching you play a central role in our success over the last seven years.

It felt like the right time for a parting of ways, but that doesn’t diminish anything you’ve achieved at City. You’ll always have that to look back on - and so will we!

And huge respect for not doing a Milner, and cynically seeing out your contract for a big signing on fee.

You leave us the right way - with your head held high!

Good luck Raz and thanks for the memories!

 

[razman]

Time to do drop the "raz" from razman?

Haha it was there long before he joined us and will be there after he has left us

of course totally unrelated! To sterling :-)

The most frustrating player i have seen,a roller coaster of a ride....but best to remember the good,occasionally brilliant,times.

All the best to the lad,and while he maybe feels he has a point to prove......hopefully his career peaked 2 seasons ago.

As for us,its an opportunity elsewhere.

 

[razman]

Has this now been confirmed by City or Chelsea ?

Should be soon enough maybe at the hour or half hour mark - which is how usually these announcements are timed

 

[SWP's back]

Good luck for England Raheem and I do hope that’s you done now for domestic trophies. Thanks for the memories and your part in our recent record breaking success.

Is that the same one he wrote when he left the Cult?

Possibly but has taken out the 'thanks for the racist abuse from fans during this transfer and the undertones of racism spouted in the press from your so called legends'

 

[ShedDweller]

Nice statement from Raz, full of respect. We all know its time for a change but no nonsense and good luck to him. Great signing at the time and no-one can say he's not delivered. He goes with goodwill.

 

[RayCTID]

Thank you for helping us in winning the trophies

 

[Bluesiam]

It was like a marriage. He made us happy and sad, smile and yell, pull our hair out and punch the sky.....all in the same 90 mins!

I think it was because he could occasionally look so, so (nearly) unbelievably good, that his unbelievably average moments ended up defining him for so many City fans.

I wish you well Raz. Enjoy the next part of your career. But for me you have had the best times of that career wearing sky blue

 

[MCFC1993]

Did well to get £50m in the last year of his contract.

Can only wish him all the best. Top guy, top professional.

Gutted to see him go as I still think he could have played a part.

Once a blue, always a blue.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

Thanks for everything Raz, enjoyed watching you play for us.

 

[Phoenix900000]

Thanks Raz and good luck :)

 

[Revolver]

No reason to doubt he’s written the statement. He was brave enough to risk the wrath caused by leaving the medias darlings.

Regardless I don’t really care whose written it or the motives behind it. It’s a statement that shows my club full respect which has his signature on.

Good luck to him in the future.

 

[WickyWain]

It’s official.

How reliable is this source though? I won't believe it until it's on the OS!
