I think he was very close to joining in January but the deal was pulled. Not sure if Inter are interested anymore since they signed Kondogbia.
Since PL numbers began; Nigel Clough, Steve McManaman, Vladimir Smicer, Harry Kewell, Robbie Keane and Luis Suarez. Personally, I think James Milner fits into the list fairly well.
Number eleven on the other hand... Mark Walters, Jamie Redknapp, Vladimir Smicer, Robbie Fowler, Mark Gonzalez, Yossi Benayoun, Alert Riera, Maxi Rodriguez and Oussama Assaidi. ...there are a few stinkers in there!
9 Ian Rush, Robbie Fowler, Nicolas Anelka, El Hadji Diouf, Djibril Cissé, Fernando Torres, Andy Carroll, Iago Aspas, Rickie Lambert We need to sign a rush/fowler/anelka or Torres type and not a diouf/carroll/aspas/lambert type
I'm trying to work out a pattern but it's not happening 3 good 1 **** 1 ok 1 good 3 **** ... are we due 3 good 1 good or 1 ok or more ****
No ... the club won't sell him for less than the 50m imo. It just makes the clubs hand stronger in that they can tell sterling he's going to rot for 2 years. He'll no doubt be on to Aidy telling him to plead with club's to pay the 50m
Or he might just sign the contract he has been offered and sit there for four years. Other clubs looking on will now know you need to unload him or risk losing a big payout (unless there is already a deal in place).
ifhe signs a new deal great cos he still won't be here in 4 years. he is toast. sign now and be sold in january... no worries.
