When a player doesn’t want to be here then off they may fuck. Especially when the cost of them staying is £65m for a season.
I find it weird when some fans stomp around like a sad ex boyfriend wanting their ex to fall in love with them again. Both want(ed) to go. So we deal with it like grown ups.
Also we have Palmer coming through. City fans spend their whole time saying they want to see our youth come through and then kick off when some space appears for them to grow into.
And whilst we’re at it, if Haaland and Alvarez signed for Chelsea but we had kept Sterling and Jesus (for one season then they walk on a free) I’d be fucking gutted and pissed off with the club, probably because I’m sane.
I’m far more interested in signing an actual left back than I’m bothered about Sterling leaving.
I'm probably one of the ones you're on about tbh.
My issue is less with him leaving and more the giddyness to move him on. Given the last two seasons I quite understand from everyone's perspective that now is a good time to part ways. I just think he deserves a lot more respect for what he's done for us the last 7 years than he seems to get around here.
I'll admit I probably over compensate where sterling is concerned, but it's down to the fact he's always had a target on his back.
