Sterling’s contract - three year extension confirmed

similarly to Milner i.e. a professional who honoured his side of his contract

Whilst I don't agree with what Milner did, Sterling might end up with no choice but to copy him.

If he wants to play in Spain at some stage in his career, he has two options. Either go after his City contract has expired, or go during his contract for a fee. Given the fee will be very high, will Real Madrid be able or willing to pay it? If not, then his only option would be to run down his contract.

Milner made excuses and fed the club false demands while running his contract down,hence why people think hes a cvnt.If Raheem does intend to leave,i dont expect similar behaviour,but time will tell.

Over all the years I have supported City, the only players I was gutted to see go were Dennis Tueart, Tommy Caton (RIP), Paul Stewart and SWP.......sad to see Kinkladze go to some extent. Apart from Dennis Tueart, they all moved onto clubs that were perceived to be bigger clubs at the time. I guess there are only three clubs Sterling could go to for a fee, actually two, because PSG are likely to struggle with funding if they wanted him. In all honesty, I would be more gutted if Sane went and I have little doubt that the Red Tops will soon be running stories about Sane with links to Bayern, Barcelona and Real Madrid.

If Sterling goes then he goes. He is far from being irreplaceable.
Pep has honed the rough diamond to what he is now and without a world class coach like Pep
Sterling will steadily regress. Sterling needs Pep and City more than Pep and City need Sterling.
I honestly wouldn't lose a wink of sleep if he left at any time.

Biggest load of bollocks i have read on here all year

I'm not sure Sane will be a target for Bayern,as his popularity/relationship with the media/fans doesn't seem great.Barca and Real,might be different.

He saw out his contract which he was totally entitled to do

Millner's situation was totally different. He is older and isn't a game changing player like Sterling. While being a good professional he just isn't in the same category as a player but a good level below. If Sterling leaves I presume it will be to a top European club, probably one of the Spanish two. Millner went to Liverpool which at the time he moved were a good level below us. He moved for a big pay day pure and simple. Even then he wouldn't have got any stick if he wouldn't have started bad mouthing us in the press.
