Transfer Rumours The Sterling Discussions

He is a good player- and we are bitching a bit because he's been an arse, but he's not that good.
Even by today's incomprehensible standards that's far too much money for a player with potential. Yes, he's probably the best of the bunch when it comes to pacey players- but not to the extent that he's irreplaceable from the team's point of view-plus his shooting is woeful, and his attitude stinks.
It remains to be seen whether the latter improves at a club where he's winning more- provided they do, of course- but do we really want someone who is that fickle?

As for him wanting trophies, if he'd actually been able to hit a barn door with a cow's banjo then we just might have been in amongst them ourselves.

 

Plus agents fee and loyalty bonus so I would imagine the actual fee is around £35m

 

The buyer usually pays the agent fee...

 

If the sell on clause is 20% and not the rumoured 25%

 

Ah right, so around £37m then.

 

I read it's 20% if sold to Premier league club, 25% if sold abroad. Presumably because it's accepted Prem clubs pay more.

 

will pay off a bit of your fine to the football league for failing fair play rules 2 years ago

 

Texhnically 9.68... Sell on fees only relate to profit on any sale... As we got him for 600k, they only get 20% of 48,400,000

 

The little **** has had a very, very lucky escape. He was one more outburst away from having a plague of porcupine shooting forth from his cock.

 

What agents fees? We don't pay any of that crap, all down to city to cover those costs and I'd imagine a transfer request will have been handed in on the sly once the bid was accepted

 

The player should have to pay agents fees, they ****ing employ the ****s!!!

 

Best bit of business i've seen by a rival team in a long time. An open letter to the Mirror by one of your fans (Jim) that can be accessed on Bbc football website to Sterling is well worth a read. Unfortunately i haven't got the I.T. skills to put up the link but someone should put it up here. I suppose the way football has gone, what Sterling and his agent have done shouldn't come as a surprise. P.S. Gary Mac joining your coaching staff is a shrewd move i.m.o.

Yeah, I have since been informed the buying club pays that

I imagine lots of stuff, football rarely features though

 

Thats what supporting United will do to you.

What at do you make on the fee your paying for Bastian... Nearly £15m for an injury prone 30 year old

Hargreaves mk II

 

Since when did we spend our 'windfalls' wisely? Torres £50m down the drain with Carroll. Suarez £75m squandered by buying lovren, Lallana, balotelli and others. Sterling's £40m...?

Anyone got any belief that Rodgers will suddenly become a good manager and a good judge of talent ?

 

I must say that letter is right. Nobody will remember rah££m playing for us. With will remember SAS.

The English media have a new cashley now.....

 

Our club needs to watch the pennies I.e the budget is dependent on how much we get for selling our best players. The mancs needed the German who I think will improve their team...he was worth may be £5m but for them money seems to be no object

 

The original quote was £15m anyway and I was happy with that, feel a bit flat now though after being told it was £5.75m

 

Funny you should mention Torres/Carroll, I see you are in need of a new striker. If you want to put in a bid of £35M for an up and coming Frenchman, a certain Emmanuel Rivierre, you might just get lucky again.
