Raheem Sterling

[Doc_Piptorious]

Of course what we have to bear in mind is that QPR are meant to have put a 20% sell on clause in as part of the deal when they sold Sterling to us.

So accepting a £30m offer means it is worth £24m to us, and if Raheem "it's not about the money" Sterling does not put in a transfer request then he gets a nice pay off from us as well.


Needs to be a silly money bid or a good player plus money bid.

[Gazzla]

John BOOM Cross. **** off you know nothing *******

[McDermotX]

Love to get 50m or thereabouts from anyone.

Reckon it'll end up 39.7m Sterlings.

[danperkins]

Sterling to city and skrtel to smash the living piss put of him next season

(probably giving away a peno and getting sent off, but the who cares)

You just know that if sterling scores against Liverpool n xt season that he is the type that will celebrate. Little **** face

[Gibbo]

£10m more and Id be happy.

[Vermilion]

The conversation was about where he ends up going rather than whether selling him is a good or bad idea.

Yes, but it went the way of people not being bothered if he went somewhere, because ito he wouldn't improve the side he went to.

£30m and a player of our choosing

[Vermilion]

£30m and a player of our choosing

Would take that, but could we have Aguero please.

[redmike65]

It would be Richard Wright. Is he better than Bogdan?

[Fivex]

Raheem Sterling

And City need to pay his wages. And hypnotise him.

Aguero that is not Richard Wright.

[Vermilion]

Probably how it would go, a la MO to Madrid, we never get a decent choice of player in such deals, always get what we're given.

I read something the other day that took into account his low wages now and the amount we'd pay over the two years remaining on his contract, vs the wages we'd have to pay his replacement and the absolute minimum we could accept to break even was £30m. Or something

Anything less than £30m and we're actually at a loss, so it would need to be significantly more than that to be worth considering

This is why the accountants would be shot straight after the lawyers when my revolution is staged.

Yeah saw that on here somewhere, the chunk qpr will get is considerable too, and fair imo, but it means we need to aim high, and the more sides that come in the better, really hope Rafa does us a favour, convinces those holding the purse strings at Madrid that Raheem can be the next Galactico, get City really throwing money and players at us.

Don't mind this news. The pot has been raised again, a few more players to declare their hands or GTFO.
