The sensible thing would be if we had already agreed between ourselves that they will accept the offer. Liverpool have never been sensible and if they do turn it down I feel sorry for Sterling but I hope we walk away. Leave them with a player who won't play and who walks on a free in two years or uses the Webster in a year.
Do you really think he will refuse to play with the Euro's next summer? There's no way he;d risk his England place he;d get his head down and do his job. The only thing that will happen if we walk away is we miss out on a player we badly need. Football fans are fickle and a few goals and all will be forgiven just like it was with Tevez. Fuck pride, fuck saving a few million just sign him and lets win the league again.
