I can't wait to see Ings in a red shirt, is that weird   :-\
Nope. Me neither mate. I'm excted to see him and Roberto in action.

Not at all, I like Ings a lot and think he's going to surprise a lot of people.  Like you say in your following post I think he's coming here with a quiet but clear confidence and determination to make an impression and succeed at Liverpool, his attitude seems spot on and I think he'll be itching to get on the pitch and show what he's about right from the off.

Sterling trapped on a plane for round 13 hours with Rodgers, senior management and Hendo. Now let's talk without your agent.

It's no wonder it seems he doesn't want to go as his agent will be worried.

Hope he does travel as a lot of fans will want to see him.

Of course, Brendan will make sure he sits next to Sterling on the plane for the photo opportunities ;D

Ings is a young English striker with potential, he knows where the back on the net is and barely cost us anything compared to other strikers we could have signed, it was a gamble signing at all mate.

Agree it's a loss and maybe a demotivating factor among other youngsters with club dealing.
But if we could spend this 50m on cracker like firmino type players.. Sterling would then know berahino was smart to get rid of Aidy.

Wouldn't shock me if the PFA  weren't involved and they said he shouldn't go.

Yeah losing Sterling is a loss but he needs to go now on our terms though.

You can bet your bottom dollar that if he did travel he would get a similar response from Liverpool supporters. Yeah his behaviour at the end of the season wasn't great but since then he has acted up even worse and disrespected the club more than he ever did during the playing season.

No doubt, but I've a feeling the source of that image (Mirror) is attempting to make out they are Liverpool fans when they aren't. Just wanted to make that clear before everyone assumes they are.

No you're right. From what I remember the Stoke fans gave him whole heaps of shite and the travelling Kop hardly supported him and someone even clapped the Stoke fans.

Sterling will be a big loss on the pitch but he's conducted himself like a total bell throughout this episode.

I will be glad to see the back of him!!

45m-50m is a good bit of business for a player who has to realise his potential yet rather than is already a world class player.

Suarez was the best player I've seen in a red shirt, I didn't care if he munched on a 100 players and we were offered 100m I still wouldn't want to seel him.

Sterling on the other hand is no where near Luis's league and so it's good riddance!!

Lets hope we can make good use of the money!!!

I would be disappointed if anything less than 50m to be honest.

We own QPR a very high percentage remember and why should be sell on City's terms.

Discuss what the effect on the team for the tour will be then.

If you want to discuss what amount of money we should accept, if it's good business, any sell on clause, then we've a transfer thread for him - no need to pollute this thread.
