While searching the site, I found an old thread from 2009, which debated the possibility of buying a then 14-year old player, named Raheem Sterling! Coincidentally, the other player that was mentioned in that 2009 discussion was Fabian Delph...
I thought it was interesting to look back at these comments, considering both are now City players...

Fantastic stuff, come into a thread to read about our very own Raheem, and to add get a lesson on dishwashers......
It can only be the international break.

Clearly not if you were paying attention. It's an impossible task.

Excellent display by him yesterday, could have scored 6.

His composure for his second and third goals were particularly impressive.

Only 20 years old, outstanding talent and a good start to his City career - 7/10 for his season so far

He's an excellent player. For his age, one of the best there is.

Zuricity wants to sell him in January.

I have no idea why.

His second goal was pure Aguero - cutting horizontally across two defenders as he danced his way into space to get a shot off - I would put money on him absorbing at least some of that from Kun in training.

It was, although at the time I thought he should have got his shot away a yard earlier; can't complain about the end product though.

Looks to be a great signing, such a huge talent at only 20 years old.He's going to be worth every penny and the rest.

Think he's had a very good start to be fair to him, no shortage of pressure involved when you move for that kind of money.He's handled it well and is settling in very nicely.

It made me smile to see Gary Lineker questioning Raheem Sterling's critics, after the hat-trick...

Garth Crooks gave much praise to both Raheem Sterling & Wilf Bony & selected them for his team of the week:

Nice, but they really should give Garth more crayons. It looks like Vardy plays for City, or Bony and Sterling for Leicester.
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."
