Raheem Sterling | Joins Chelsea for £50m

[silvathechihuahua]

With him not wanting to agree a new deal we have to let him go but we will need a replacement winger as it looks like we are changing are style to complement haaland

Would agree. I think £55m feels cheap because of his contribution but when the alternative is he walks for free next summer then £55m would be a good deal. I do think if Sterling leaves he’ll need replacing so we may aswell have £50m+ towards it. Who that replacement should be, god knows, Gnabry does feel gettable?

Gnabry is a decent player but just a bit concern over his age (almost 27). And he will demand a 5+ years deal at the least. We will have Mahrez and KDB over 31 with 3 years deal, Gundo over 31 with 1 year left and Grealish/Bernado around 27/28. Adding one more 27 years old sounds unbalanced. Prefer to look for some young lad.

I think he’s gonna find out the grass isn’t always greener when he leaves. He’ll score some goals and get some assists but he won’t hit anywhere near the numbers he has for us.

Well yeah, it's pretty blatant that he won't be going to a team as good as ours. But he's almost guaranteed more game time and he obviously wants to play as much as possible.

Raz, I can’t still forgive you that miss against Lyon…

Who is Bobby Vincent .... I am in Florida and I have never heard of him.

Wasn’t he killed in that plane crash with Buddy Holly?

His cross to Gundogan should settle every thing :)




Anyway, we are losing our best RW since the past decade
Wish him luck except against City




Thanks Raheem

He's a large part of our successful recent history now. But....he needs a new challenge and we are taking a new direction . So good for both parties

You are right, but I think his mentality isn’t for this squad, opposed to Jesus, whose mentality is on spot

Looks like Chelsea will go for Rafinha leaving no one else currently interested in Raz. Hopefully someone will eventually come in and sign him. It's best if he moves on.

I think they want both but Raphinha would prefer a move to Barca.

I knew a Robbie Vincent, great soul DJ back in the day. Probably not him though, doubt he'd change his first name just for the hell of it.
