Manchester City sign Sterling for £49m.

Jose must be having a chuckle.http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/33497488

Good deal for Liverpool imho. Might well be a player where attitude proves an obstacle. £100 mill for Torres and Sterling....nice work if you can get it.

 

[TomandJerry]

Liverpool ripped off Man C there

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

That's a lot of money for a player not much better than Lennon and Theo at that age

 

[big nuts]

The next Shaun Wright-Phillips?

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Desperate for English players due to home grown rule, so they will be exploited .

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Makes Brendan Rodgers look even more of a than before, should such a thing be possible.

 

[Stat Brother]

And you can guarantee The Bindippers will make 5 astonishingly bad purchases with the money.

It's a win/win all round for Chelsea, Utd and Arsenal.

Once again next season's Premier League will look exactly like all the other ones.

 

[Lurchy]

Can only commend Liverpool for getting that high a fee, especially given Sterlings unprofessionalism in recent months. Crazy that it's larger than all of the following cost:

Ozil: £42m
Aguero: £38m
Mata: £37m
Costa: £32m
Hazard: £32m
Sanchez: £32m
Fabregas: £30m
Silva: £30m

That's a lot of money for a player that has the same shooting ability as Leon Best.

With at least 3 of the 5 coming from Southampton.

Good player but 50 million + signing on fee + wages (add in agents fee)?

Each and every single one of them being a superior player

A prime example of why the Premier League and all its money just stinks. A bunch of overpaid chancers who don't give a damn about anyone and anything other than themselves. Kiss that shirt, no not that one, this one.

 

[Leekbrookgull]

and in eighteen months he will be ''advised'' by his agent to move abroad. To make it big time.

He'll have sunk without trace by then.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Wouldn't happen in Germany, Raheem Euro would be priced at around €20 mill.

 

[Albumen]

50m is only a lot of money if Liverpool spend it well. They rarely do though ....

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

Hoping for a sunny day on Saturday as Peacehaven entertain Luton Town (1pm) if we can take five grand on the gate we might be able to stretch it out til christmas.



Just sayin like

 

[scooter1]

bonkers deal, he's woth 15m at most as it stands. Liverpool have done a great bit of business, but only if(as has been mentioned above) if they spend it well
