Raheem Sterling

[Leyton388]

I am sure the 150,000 a week wage would ensure that you were not to upset though.

At the end of your career you'll be measured on what you won and not how much you'be earned. Don't get me wrong getting £150k a week would be out of this world but as a professional sportsman I'd like to look back on my career knowing I played a significant part in the honours I have won.

Anyone else notice how much more of a cunt Neville has been if late. Really sticks the knife in on us whilst praising Utd to the max

Glad to be recognising him as the cunt he is again, never sat right me liking him.

But then Sterling might not win trophies here....and wouldnt pla a signigicant part in a City or CHelsea team?

So is it better to have medals for not contributing significantly at City or significantly contributing to winning **** all medals at Liverpool?

He's only 20 and is still developing. He'll have plenty of chances to win stuff later on. He should stay here, develop and if he wins nothing here then at least he'd have developed into a player that could potentially hold down a starting 11 place at city or Chelsea.

If he goes to one of those clubs now he will be stuck on the bench and will turn into another SWP.

I agree he should stay, grass isn't always greener.

But I guess Sterling would counter the above by asking who he was going to learn off and who would be around him to allow him to develop his game?

Recently he was played at right wing back to accommodate Lallana. In fairness it made sense as if Raheem applied himself to the role he'd do well there and at the time we didn't have too many options. But does he really want to be at a club where he will be moved out of his better positions so that an inferior performing player could get in the side?

I bet last season he was loving it. Playing full time in a role ideally suited with players like Suarez, Sturridge & Gerrard. Being able to learn off top players. He probably came on leaps and bounds in training and it showed on the pitch. He got in the starting XI for the World Cup on the back of it.

Now I don't think Raheem is good enough to move yet. But if a club pays a massive fee in the region of £40m, however big that club, it won't be to start him on the bench. His issue is if he doesn't rise to the occasion there will be massive pressure. But he's had plenty of stick here when he's not performed.

If I was advising him, I'd say stick another year. But in honesty, he's a speed demon. One bad injury and he's screwed. If Sturridge was leaving last summer there'd have been a massive queue of takers, now? Not one for a decent wedge.

Look at Owen. His best years were as a kid of Raheem's age. Maybe he's right to want the quick success? Plus maybe he'd be wise to go and earn the big bucks before people realise he isn't all that.....

Barrett article bang on but I take exception with one point, there are plenty of our fans who can't see that expectations have been dumbed down and mediocrity is the next step, if it hasn't arrived already.

Very good point, but the media in general having been giving FSG, Ayre and BR a free ride on the same.

They were getting a free ride as you put it because we were improving. Now we have regressed all are getting criticism. Rightly so i say.

Can't believe im saying this but Neville has been fair every time I heard him. He praised us when we were good and he's slated us recently because we have been ****

Yep, agreed. The idea that he wouldn't get excited by It'd beating us to a CL place is quite funny. We're allowed to be really passionate but any other fan is a cunt for acting the same way. He doesn't have to be impartial when it comes to Utd, that'd appear false

[Fan65]

Couple of top drawer signings this summer and he should be shown the contempt he deserves

£100 grand a week ...20 year old...sheesh!!!

After all he's no Robbie is he?

No they didn't say that.


They said......."Sterling Will Weg Aus Liverpool"

[marksared]

Deleted.

I think he's a cracking pundit. Some chelsea knuckledraggers down here go on about how they can't understand him, but they're morons. Most of the lads that can read like him.

subtitles?

Pogba moved to Juventus (not for a fee) and excelled. Perhaps Sterling will too?

Angling for a move is one thing, asking for world class wages is another.

It would have been better if he'd said that this season has been a massive let down and he doesn't have faith in the club's ability to further him as a player or regularly challenge for trophies. It might have been wrong but it would have been honest.
