brendan rodgers' football club, where dreams become reality...

that was the only funny bit though unfortunately.

Good riddence- soon to be the most hated ex LFC player. Enjoy Anfield next year you greedy little ****

from the stands? not as if he will be getting a game

[Fosterbloke]

**** it, the opportunity cost by not selling him is too high. It affects morale, and adds a headache we don't need this season. Plus we can then buy Lacazette, Reus or Benteke

Pounds Sterling

I always admire how behind Sky sports are. Deal is done, dependant on medical. Welcome to Manchester City Raheem Sterling.

40M plus 5M addons as i said previously.

Have a nice evening all.

Supposed to be well respected on bluemoon and gets genuine info

Would QPRs cut come straight from the £45m or is it worked out without the add-ons

Not an ideal end to his stay with us is it? Think questions inevitably have to be asked as to how and why the most valuable young talent in Europe (not IMO) has been allowed to leave like this.

The Stevie interview on BBC was great, numerous veiled pops at Raheem.

I'm not that bothered about him.

He's probably better then I think he is but not as good as good as he thinks he is. We did rubbish with him last year, did nothing.

so once qpr take there cut it will be almost a straight swap value wise for Benteke. Ouch.

Could look at it that way i suppose, or we could say... ...that the fee we paid for Sterling from QPR; is now getting us Benteke, who is still himself young and will have a sell on value if it doesn't work out at lfc.

and with the most we've ever paid Sterling being 35k pw.

Football is a bit like musical chairs with players moving clubs all the time these days, so i don't think we did so bad in this round, we got Sterling for starters, before other clubs did, so it was win win from then on imo.

Once he's gone he'll be nothing to LFC, a distant memory, not important and not worthy of our time, but i think all told we did ok out of signing him when he was so young.

It would seem to me that he's determined to go and he's being allowed to leave on the club's terms.

Given his attitude and wish, I think it's fair enough.

If you want to ask why he wants to leave, then that is a different story entirely.

But no, not ideal at all. And you can say that about all the good players that have decided to leave in the past 10 or less years.
