Slow news day at Sky.
Someone has worked out the points total for all top flight games. We are 6th with 5286 pts
1 dippers 6921
2 arsenal 6755
3 everton 6692
4 rags 6403
5 villa 5922
6 CITY 5286
7 spurs 5091
8 chelsea 5082
9 newcastle 4886
10 sunderland 4560
Whst was interesting was the rags didnt overtake us until 1983. Considering we have no history I thought it wasn't bad

Is this story a April fool, or does Sterling want out ? I would like to know what the consensus is

After the abuse he got from them (including racial) whilst they forced every other club to boo him as well - if he even considered going back there it would just show what a thick twat he is.

I don't know what it is and I'm not clicking on it, but as it is in the Wail, it is almost certainly a distortion if not a lie.

Absolute non story. All he said was he would never say never. And as for the dippers possibly looking to resign him, it’s laughable. All talk of transfers at the moment is just that: talk and wild speculation. Clubs have no idea of their budgets for next year with the uncertainty around season tickets, sponsors, PL money and even when football will resume. So there is zero chance of big money transfers going ahead once the window opens until all the uncertainty is over.

And i see Sky have an article about 50 players that got away, about all the great players they “nearly” signed.
Haven’t clicked on it but I imagine Pele and Messi and Maradona are in it

Much as we all hate the Dippers, Sterling was employed by them. We've all had employers who we enjoyed working for, why should footballers be any different?
As far as I can see, he said he has a soft spot for them, end of.

Don’t think anyone is saying footballers aren’t allowed to enjoy playing for a club.
If your employer abused you and your family because you said you wouldn’t renew your contract with them - would you enjoy working there? Unless you were just giving lip service of course.

Silence would have been golden. His time with us he has seen some fucked up decisions to known better ,

Agreed. I don’t know why footballs open their mouths!

Largely down to most being as thick as fuck and not realising what they are saying. In Sterling's case, he obviously has an affinity for the club despite the shit that was kicked up around him leaving there

He’s a weak human. That’s been shown many a time. He probably thinks they’ll give him less shit if he says he likes them.

That's where I was going with that. I do believe he thinks this will endear him to them. One way of doing it I suppose although his latest razor adverts showing him skipping round two players in all red probably won't......despite that never happening in real life for him

Sterling only has a few tricks in his overall play , speed being one of them, and hes been found out by opposing players...he hardly ever dribbles past anyone these days.
He is light years away from the bag of skills Foden possesses.
THEY SAY SWEARING IS DUE TO A LIMITED VOCABULARY. I KNOW THOUSANDS OF WORDS, BUT I STILL PREFER "FUCK OFF" TO "GO AWAY"

Surely Kolarov's the level he should be aspiring to

I honestly don’t think we’ll see the level of Kolarov again for some time at this club.

If anything we’ve gone backwards in his position. Still struggling to replace the quality he had.
