Raheem Sterling | Joins Chelsea for £50m

[Phil1]

if the player is unhappy and wants a move then sell
if newcastle are after him then we now use the super tax and triple the asking price

i heard Barcelona want him on a free hahahahahahahahahahah

The problem with that is Sterling would probably prefer to sit tight at the best club in the world collecting huge wages and leave for a free at the end of his contract and bag even more money for himself than risk going to a team who are in danger of being relegated.
Plus, living in Barcelona or Newcastle? Don't think anybody is that daft are they?

Seems Raz has split the city fan base, some want him to sign, some want him out. I'm fine with him signing a new deal but if they give him KDB money that's an issue as his form right now is awful. Does feel like Sane again

 

[Shaffer92]

I'd bite Barca's hand off for 45M at this point. He hasn't performed for well over a year and is on massive wages. That would un ironically be Txiki's best bit of outgoing business yet ..by a long shot.

Fact is, he doesn't deserve a new contract. Its very simple.

The club will no doubt be looking after themselves by offering him one.
Like Milner and Sane in recent times I very much doubt he will sign it though.

sitting on a contract and not playing just picking your wages up sends out the wrong message to other clubs that he could the same at there club. sterling is not the world class player everybody in the media make out to be and fluff's many chances in games. in the big games you need to be taking the one chance you get and sadly sterling misses

i think he is a great player to have when the game won and send him on after 60 minutes to run at the defences
but pep does not like to carry anybody and you have to offer him and show something week in week out

i would take £40 million for him or £60 million from newcastle

He has been playing though and will continue to do so whilst he's part of our squad.
We can't accept anything from Newcastle if he refuses to go there.

Newcastle would be lucky to attract Jordan Ibe at the minute, nevermind Sterling.

If they thought he didn't deserve one, then it makes no sense to offer him one. Yeah you protect his transfer value, but you also commit to paying him 300k a week for a lot longer than you would. Gets to a point where letting him leave on a free makes more sense than extending but being unable to move him on.
