Guest HTT II Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Sterling gets goals, but he’s not a clinical finisher, if he was you’re looking at Mess/Ronaldo numbers, that’s what prevents him - for me - being genuinely world class. He’s a very very good player though and needless to say, I’d love him here at the Toon. A bargain at 35m! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from the Barca Dutch lad who have yous been linked with and how many do you think you’ll sign and how much money is available? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Away Toon Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 No City fan doubts Sterling’s raw physical attributes: incredible pace and acceleration which create scoring opportunities. However, he is not a thinking footballer. He is reactive rather than proactive and panics whenever he has time to think meaning he almost always makes the wrong choice. Selling him now makes sense as once those raw attributes go he’ll be done as a footballer. From the BBC. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as much of a stretch as it sounds. They only accumulated 57 points last season, must be worst haul in a lonnnggg time. We, under Howe (only including the 25 games from December to give a chance of some influence on results) averaged 1.68pts per game. That return would have given 64 points (enough for 5th place, last year) over a whole season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently £200m available and we were to sign up to 6 players. De Jong will happen by the looks of things. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Arsenal close to wrapping up a deal for Raphinha. Did not see that coming. If they add Raphinha and Jesus that would be pretty impressive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaKa Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Oh man ... well I think Nottingham Forest are going to be my second team next season. They look to be about to wrap up a deal for one of my favourite players on the Super Eagles, Taiwo Awoniyi from Union Berlin, for just £17.5 million. Think this is potentially a really great signing for them. He's a top guy and a really emerging player. In my opinion there is some Yakubu/Yekini potential with him. Forest are also looking to wrap up deals for Moussa Diakhite and Dean Henderson. These are really decent singings for them. Their recruitment team seems to be really sharp.

Kid Icarus Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 I was alright with not getting Raphina if he was going to Barcelona or even Spurs, but Arsenal getting him is a strange one when they have Saka and Martinelli.

There are people who've spent their whole lives going to this stadium, seeing the class of 92 and to have that taken away from them, it's just unfair. They don't deserve that and that's why I think someone has to step in and be the voice of reason here. For next season, make the Premier League a 22-team league, you get more games and you make sure these loyal fans don't lose out. It's a no brainer."
