    Here we go though with the same old, same old with Wenger. Utd already making a statement with Depay. The Chavs & Gypos will start in the next few weeks to add to their ranks, Liverpool & Spurs also - but nothing from us. Nothing until the team has already started pre-season training & then its going to be a drawn out affair, Wenger arguing over £1 mill, until we finally do the deal with a minute to spare on deadline. Anyone think any different?

    Sterling seems quite underrated here for some reason. Ok, he doesn't have the end product yet but who does at the age of 20?

    There's a reason why so many top clubs are keeping an eye on him, and that's because he has all the raw ingredients to be a top player. The kind of player that defenders hate playing against. There's space for him here as a wide forward, especially if Theo's going.

    That said, I don't like the way he is messing Liverpool around. He could easily do the same to us. He's a big risk at the asking price too.

    We'd be a stepping stone for his next big money move. If he realised any of that potential where do you think he'd be jetting off to at the first opportunity? If not we end up with Walcott. Save the effort and keep the latter. Waste of resources if we chase this guy, there are plenty of others out there who fit our actual requirements.

    I agree, let Man City turn him into another Jack Rodwell or Scott Sinclair

    Our priority has to be goalkeeper, holding midfielder and striker.

    As you allude to in your final sentence, it's more the fact that for his asking wages and price you could get soooo much better. Plus he seems disruptive and a cock with a scumbag agent and an inflated opinion of himself.

    He's not going to be a Messi or Ronaldo. At best he can get himself to the Bale/Sanchez/Reus class of wide forwards and he's shown a few fleeting glimpses of that class at times but it's no certain thing yet and too much of a risk at the quoted price/wages.

    This has to be a parody, surely?

    But the fact it's of oneself's posting style makes it incredibly, mind-bendingly, wonderfully meta.

    Can't say I would be fussed if we bought Sterling, I think he is a decent young player but not somebody we need. I do get the impression Wenger really likes him and will bid for him if he becomes available.
    Theo would be insane to go to Liverpool. He'd be really effective as an upgrade to Navas at Citeh though.

    I'd like to think the days of selling to rivals would be over now. So Theo's best option would be Swansea or something.

    We have a Cup final, not arsed of thinking about transfers right now too extensively.

    Although now I've posted, think if Sterling can stop being a knobhead and get back to how he was playing at the very beginning of the season then happy days. As it is, I think for whatever reason (greed, generally being an idiot etc) he has had his attitude change for the detriment of his overall play - basically he arrived as a GHEL.
