    I would say 19m is a fair price for him, his form last season was poor as well.

    I don't rate him as a player or a man. He comes across as a spoilt child.

    Liverpool are well rid of him and I hope he ends up rotting on the bench at City.

    You got to remember the guy is 20 years old, for his age his record is up there with Messi and ahead of where Ronaldo was, (for goals, games and assists) at that age, he obviously hasnt done himself any favours with the way he dealt with the situation but with the right bit of guidance he could be one of the best of his generation... if he was spanish, german or brazilian i think everyone would be excited by him

    Jordan speaks sense!

    It's a lot of money but it could be a great bit of business. We could get 10+ quality years from him, and he can only get better by playing and training alongside the likes of Silva, Aguero, Toure etc.

    It's too easy to look at the headline fee and dismiss it, look at it from an investment perspective. Bear in mind it's £45m with a further £4m in add ons, and with QPR getting 20% you can see why Liverpool wanted top whack for him. Now they have plenty of pennies to waste on other players ;)

    Can't win with some people; we spend £££ on a top foreign player and we are ruining the national team. So we sign the hottest English prospect and we are still ruining the national team!

    walcott is better then sterling 49mil is a joke

    Walcott aged 20     64 league games played (21 in championship)    10 league goals scored (4 in the championship)

    Sterling aged 20     97 league games played (all premiership)         18 league goals scored (all in premiership)

    Ronaldo aged 20     87 league games played  (25 in Portugal)         12 league goals scored  (3 in Portugal)

    The stats speak for themselves, also Arsenal and Man U  are a better team than Liverpool so its an even better record on sterlings part.

    For the record i dont think Sterling will become as good as Ronaldo but the potential is obviously there.

    I stand by my original post
    He was awful tonight
    Couldn't control the ball,couldn't cross the ball and he's lost his pace.
    All the the others were great though.
    Vardy next game please.

    I think 'awful' is a bit harsh. I thought he looked dangerous coming forward but just lacked the end product on the night. Also I don't see how he's lost his pace. I'm a bit disappointed Vardy didn't get on, hope he gets a chance against Wales

    Of course Vespa doesn't like a young, successful black person from Jamaica.
