Sterling’s contract - three year extension confirmed

[The Riot Club]

Yep. And the worse case scenario is that the same club offer that type of deal! Wouldn’t put it past them. Whilst they offer nothing in football terms, they can offer the earth wages wise as Sanchez has proven.

I'm certain that those running the club wouldn't allow that to happen. Just can't imagine someone like Khaldoon letting those dirty bastards down the road get one of our best players on a free. If we really can't agree a deal he'll go to Spain. Hopefully though we'll sort something out and pay him what he's worth.

I doubt you'll catch many with that.

Well unlike you (master of the snide comment) Im not out to catch anybody, just giving a genuine opinion.
I can simplify it though, I hope the powers that be at Madrid dont decide they want Raz after his performance in Spain.
Hope that is now clear enough.

I think he fancies playing for Madrid or Barcelona and who could blame him? I love City but we can't match the aura or history of those clubs just yet, plus they are nicer places to live. Hopefully if that is his desire he gives us a few more years, he could still win more trophies here and then move and have a good career abroad.

In a nutshell..my sentiments also, plus we have Diaz

Just a gut feeling I could be wrong. He is a strong willed single minded character. If this is his aim hopefully the club will do a gentleman's agreement if he gives us four or five more years and signs a new contract so we get a fee we won't stand in his way.

I wouldn't blame him for wanting to get away from negative press and most English football fans either.

I just have to laugh at the notion that Sterling goes to Barca or RM and gets a game!

Think he walks into both sides at the moment.

He's better than Dembele, Malcom and Suarez (arguable but think there'll be a large decline with him this year), so he'd get a spot in Barca's front 3.

He's better than Mariano, Benzema, Vazquez, Asensio and Bale can't stay fit, so he'd get a spot in Real's front 3.


Anyway we'd be mad to not get him that new contract asap. Him and Sane should be our wingers for years to come.

A sensible post in this thread.

I agree that we should try to sign him up, but the notion that he walks into either side...and stays there for a 3, 4 or 5 year contract is laughable today.
