Junxs Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 Can't see this happening. Not a good player at all, can't see why Emery would be interested. The only thing he is good at is running in behind, if you watch his game closely you would see that his build up play, passing and decision making is abysmal. Really can't see this being true. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoony Posted August 23 Share Posted August 23 I highly doubt this is true but Sterling gets way, way too much criticism. Every time I see him play in this massively disjointed Chelsea team he’s the only standout player who actually looks competent and keen to make a difference. Was often the same when he was playing for England. But for the wages and price tag and age, I don’t see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdulaziz1 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 To be honest I don’t see where he’d play. Not the worst signing as a loan, to be with the squad. But not what we really need. The best we can get from Chelsea is Carney which most would argue but I think we can get him for a very good amount while rotating with Rogers. If he gets free from injuries there is a player there.

DeepDish Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 (edited) I think he would be good for us, but as it is Chelsea that is our counterpart, the best thing would be to let this one drag out and then pull the plug right before the deadline, so Chelsea is stuck with him and his salary.

It clearly isnt the individuals money, but that doesn't mean we arent entitled to feel concerned about how the club (potentially) spends it's money. If we paid everyone 200k a week and we fell foul of squad cost rules/PSR/went bankrupt in 5 years would that be ok because "it isnt my money" ? If we matched Sterling's rumoured current wages then that is a bad way to spend money. It's absolutely no different to saying "why are we spending £50m on that player?", yet that isnt the individuals money either. Well yes but you kind of have to go by the assumption that by spending 200k a week we wouldn't be putting ourselves at risk, is really my point. "It's not your money" is just me being flippant. My point is basically I don't think it particularly matters, as long as the club sign it off. If it's a loan on 200k a week that's £10m for a season. I'd pay it (with someone else's money ) Edited August 24 by gilbertoAVFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I seem to remember how he cried in Guardian, still being a Liverpool player, about the fact that he was criticised for turning down a 100k a week offer at Liverpool. So he has gamed some clubs himself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But… Just supposing it’s a serious possibility, and Emery and Monchi fancy having Sterling in the squad for our first Championship League season, but @El Segundo doesn’t… Whose opinion should hold sway? It’s a tough one. No it isn't. And pardon me for thinking the point of a forum is for people to express their opinions on Villa related matters, without assuming the club will absolutely value it over that of the Manager.

Xela Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 it won't happen, but i'd take him on a heavily subsidised 12 month loan. No way to a permanent deal. Moot point anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
