I know a lot of people are happy at the fact that FSG are holding out on the price they want for Sterling and also that they have got shut of a player they don't like, but this in some ways is a smoke screen which hides real problems at LFC. The reason fans want shut is because of the behaviour of Sterling and his agent over the last few weeks which has lead to a breakdown in the relationship between Sterling and the fans to the point we are just happy to get shut. The behaviour of Sterling and his agent is a symptom of another problem that has become a regular occurrence and that is we can't keep hold of our best players. While the club and fans are claiming a victory let's not forget it may quite easily be a hollow victory cause we could be weaker next season without sterling, and we may not be able to attract top players let alone keep top players.

49 million kind of an annoying amount.

 

Well he didn't sign his contract so we've probably saved a decent wedge in his lower wages over the past few months.

City are fucking mugs. We need to spend it wisely or we'll be even bigger mugs.

 

The only mugs that are bigger mugs than city are the mugs that are on our transfer committee.

Liverpool have reached an agreement with Manchester City over the £49m transfer of Raheem Sterling.

 

The transfer of the 20-year-old England winger is subject to contract negotiations and a medical.

 

Sterling had asked to leave Anfield and was the subject of two bids from City in June, which were rejected.

 

The 20-year-old is under contract until 2017, but turned down a new £100,000-a-week deal at Liverpool.

 

On Saturday, Sterling was named on a 30-man list for the tour of Thailand, Australia and Malaysia, but was then withdrawn.

 

Several former Liverpool players have criticised the player since he told manager Brendan Rodgers and chief executive Ian Ayre he wanted to leave the club this summer.
