Raheem Sterling | Joins Chelsea for £50m

[Blue Smarties]

He’s gone I reckon. @SWP's back hinted at it.

I think it’s pretty clear that he’s leaving otherwise an agreement would’ve been reached for his contract by now and given his performances aren’t exactly forcing our hand to bend over backwards for him, it probably won’t be extended IMO.

His wages off the bill will help fund Haaland if we go all out. I’m sure he’ll leave and thrive elsewhere but it’s just the right time to go I reckon.

I wonder if we'll get a statement in the next 24 hours explaining how this was taken out of context? Fwiw I don't think it was but this is the sort of stuff we usually see players make an argument against.

Unless he really is off in which case we'll undoubtedly hear nothing.

Honestly I love Raheem , but if he doesn't get back to his best this season hopefully he leaves. It'd be good for both him and for us.

We already know he is going to leave. Just depends on how we plan to let him go to maximize the ROI for the club without messing our season. If we get like 20 mil more than we might get in summer, we might let him go in Jan especially if we can buy a player or if Ferran and Delap get into form as CF.

Sterling open to a move to Europe.

“If there was an opportunity to go somewhere else, I’d be open to it at this moment in time,” he said, before suggesting he would prefer moving to a club in France or Spain.

[samuelyeboah]

i just don't understand the complaints about the gametime.

does he think he justifies his place on the pitch when he plays? does he think he just divinely deserves gametime despite pulling, generously, a 2/10 for every single game in the past year? come on, man. i love him but he needs to do some self reflection first.

 

[Nihilist]

If he leaves I hope he goes to Barca. They have a talented squad despite their recent results, they just need a proper manager. I think he will fit in well with Spanish football.

 

[sd33]

he said he wants more game time,maybe he should think why he isn't getting it at city

It’s so strange after he started the UCL final (Ffs)and PSG away when almost no one here would have started him. Have fun at Barcelona or PSG

Pep won't be pleased with the public quotes.
I hope PSG spunk 100m on him, doesn't justify a first team place ATM.

I don't think he's complaining tbf. He's just saying if there's more gametime available elsewhere he'd be up for it.

If this is the end, it'd be really important for us not to make the same errors the Liverpool fans did.

Get a decent fee for Sterling and get his big wages off the books ! Stick every penny of it towards haaland .

 

[cookster]

His form over the last 12 months has been the worst of all our front players. The quotes feel self-entitled, I hope we cash in big.

 

[Nihilist]

Don't see PSG offering us a lot of money for him, to be honest,maybe if he wouldve scored against them..
