ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

I can't see Sterling staying the way things are going, which is a massive shame as he's not a particularly great player and due to his age, nationality and ridiculous over-hyping, they'll probably get the best part of double his actual worth which can only benefit them.

I'll be particularly disappointed in Mourinho if he's the one to take him off their hands as firstly, Sterling won't improve his squad and secondly, it'd help Liverpool out in getting an unpopular and high earning player off the books and allowing them another outrageous summer spend which might allow them to spawn another Torres/Suarez. It'd be a daft move for someone who dislikes Liverpool.

If Sterling stays and the owners don't trust Brendan with a huge amount of money, they could be in for a grim next season.
 
As we all know, Liverpool Football Club is special. Different. Classy. Unique. Special. Unique. Classy. Unique. Iconic. Unique. Special. Unique. Clubby. Clubbish. Clubesque. Special. Unique. Increasingly irrelevant. Over the hill. Past-it. Yesterday’s news. Special. Unique. Iconic. Unique. Special. Special. Special. Unique. Liverpool Football Club are special. And unique. And special. And classy. They’re special and specially unique and uniquely specially and specially special and uniquely classy and they have a different way of doing things, you wouldn’t understand, you just wouldn’t, because you’re not special, or classy, or unique, you’re not Liverpool Football Club, and you wouldn’t understand, so don’t even bother, just accept it, they’re the best football team in the tra-la-la-la land.

Liverpool Football Club’s specialness and uniqueness and classiness naturally places them in a position to pat lesser clubs on the head and let them know of their place in the food chain. Clubs, say, like Southampton, who were browbeaten into selling Adam Lallana and Dejan Lovren to mighty Liverpool last summer. “They have a choice as a club,” Liverpool’s head guru, Brendan Rodgers, roared last August. “They don’t have to sell. You have a choice. Maybe Southampton’s objectives have changed. They were looking to be a [Big Cup] club, I believe. They obviously wanted to change. There might be one or two others who leave. It’s just the way it works.” It’s. Just. The. Way. It. Works.

Words to live by. Poetry in motion that comes to mind now that Raheem Sterling is busy letting Liverpool know that the way it works is that he would like to leave in the summer, maybe join a bigger club, play for a team who actually have a chance of winning something in the near future, that there’s only so many times he can hear about the Miraculous Miracle of Istanbul before he’s forced to go all Van Gogh on his ears.

Treason! Naturally Sterling’s desire to play for a good team has been met with fury and The Fiver assumes he has spent the day locked in Melwood’s Re-education Chamber, a crack team of Phil Thompson, John Bishop and John Aldridge taking it in turns to hammer home the uniqueness and specialness and classiness of Liverpool Football Club, making sure Sterling knows that he will forever walk alone if he joins Manchester City, a terrifying prospect indeed. It’s just the way it works.

Bit off topic, but it seems like yesterday when he shyly asked Moyes if he had to say anything, then took his chewing gum out doesnt it?

....you know, my mind goes back to walking out of Bellefield behind his folks and brother Graeme. Without being cruel they had little, not even a car to take them back to Croxteth but I knew what was on the horizon for them. Young Wayne has done himself proud, he is a top footballer and likely to be his country's highest goal scorer and appearance maker. Never in doubt.

No guarantees of that.
