Personally this is the main transfer for me i reckon the lad will have the biggest impact to how we improve this coming season.

Paying over the odds for this one which grates a bit specially being held to ransom by the scouse, but definitely a very good signing for us.
Bring it on.

First signing in the bag then it looks. De Bruyne next, then pogba to top it off. Please.

Personally I think he's going to commit his future to Villa later today.

Lol..

 

[CityFan94]

I think quite a lot of us have got caught up in the price and have forgotten just how good a signing this is.

Sterling is the best young English player by a mile and, not only that, addresses a big weakness in our team in terms of pace on the left wing.

Huge signing.

Im with you big phil, he's a total waste of money. The 45m could be spent a lot better than sterling. Only going for him to satisfy this stupid 4 englishmen rule.

 

[FootieFan86]

Finally looks to be coming to a conclusion.

I think both fans will be happy it will be concluded and we can both concentrate on pre season and other potential signings.

BREAKING NEWS

Manchester City and Liverpool are in advanced talks over the transfer of Raheem Sterling, according to Sky sources.

He's exactly what we need on so many levels. Looking at it purely from a footballing perspective. A front free of Silva Aguero and Sterling is tantalising. Much better than the original SAS ;)

 

[CityFan94]

Interesting to read how highly Sterling was rated in the first few pages of this thread.

Don't let the media, bitter Liverpool fans or the transfer fee skew your judgement.

Raheem Sterling is a brilliant player and I'm delighted he's joining.

 

[We'reNotReallyHere]

Think this lad will turn out to be very special for us. Only 21 with potential to be anybody he wants, very exciting.

GET IN! Best talent England has produced in last 20 years is going to play for us.

Scary good.

Aguero's clinical finishing, Silva's vision and passing with Sterling's pace and off the ball movement.

Easily the best front 3 in the league.

The title's ours next season mate.

This signing is just what we need. Last season our attacking play was sometimes way too predictable

Sterling did report for training this morning. He's been withdrawn from the squad by Liverpool as a deal with City edges closer.

 

[Chancy Termites]

Until it's officially announced by the club I'm not getting carried away.

Few months yet until he's 21 ;)

I agree. Arguably the 3rd best front three in world football behind Barca and Madrid.

This is absolutely correct

 

[cookster]

Exactly what we're missing up front. Quick, direct, will score goals, win pens and free kicks around the box.
