Sterling’s contract - three year extension confirmed

[Jalfraag]

Really, who do you think would pay 100m for him . And even if you’re right that still make him worth 50% the value of KDB. My logic still holds up. You simply can’t put Sterling in the same category as KDB Sergio and Merlin.

The dippers paid 40M for AOC with 12 months on his contract. He's about 1% the player Sterling is. £4bn easy.

Ok, on that logic I concede. 4bn it is and at least 275k per week.

Not sure why so much hate for him, he was excellent last season and brilliant so far this season. In current market, he is worth over 100 M.

Hope it gets sorted. Don't mind waiting a bit for now because he's obviously busting a gut on the pitch

Haha! Good one!

And, no hate, just different valuations.

I wonder if FFP2 if introduced will have an effect on this, I certainly know I’d be raising it as a possibility with Txiki if I was Sterling’s agent.

If you can only spend 90 million net, than getting Sterling on a free would be an absolute steel and replacing him could really scupper our transfer plans.

It will also have the effect of bringing down transfer fees, which will in turn increase wages.

They will be increased pressure from buying clubs to get prospective players to push for moves, transfer requests etc. So wages will need to be high to create this behaviour.

So I certainly see wages going up across the board. In the same way 89 million for Pogba was far too much at the time, it is probably now market value for him now with all the inflation. I think wages will do the same ( the rich will still want to flex their financial muscles).

He’s 23 and he’s ace!! We’re always more dangerous with him in the team. He never hides and his off ball running is world class.

I see last season being the norm and a 20 goal a season winger who can play left or right is a fantastic player.

Not sure why people struggle wit value and worth. The club might value him at that, but his worth is only what someone is willing to pay and imo, I dont see anyone who would spend £100m based on 1 season and a desire to leave

We all have opinions on players, but can we not use the word "hate". No one on here has said they hate Sterling, they're just questioning his worth in transfer terms. Everyone knows how important he was last season, and he's started well again. So, can we just cut the word hate from posts when Blues are discussing him.

Oh, but the media do absolutely hate him.
