Where is he going to play and replace whom? He will want to be a regular starter

Isn't the London press suggesting he'll end up at Palace?

Different style but I could see him being a Merson esque type signing for us if he came. I also think of successful, the marketing up side would be massive, which Heck will know.

If we can afford Sterling, just chuck the wages at Nico Williams

I think I can see a flaw in that argument.

It's a sign of how far we've come that a large majority don't want Sterling.

Fulham seem to be doing a fair bit of business lately. Some interesting signings they've made.

Very good point.  And I think that's some of the reticence - feels like a Gerrard signing,

If the deal is favourable & the manager thinks he could bring something we don't have, then we'll do it. But it'll be a loan with an option to buy.

When he was at City & playing well for England I thought he was the only world class player in the England team. People quickly forget how good he was. If he's got the motivation to prove a few people wrong, let's get him.

He has never been World Class or even close.

It’s bizarre isn’t it, you think he’s done bigger all over the last few years, hence not getting near the England squad, and then you look at his last year’s highlights……

Assuming we are still having to let a player leave before we sign one, i wonder if we have received an offer for Jacob, and if we sign Sterling then Jacob will be leaving us.

Don't know how the other players will react when Sterling signs for us and his salary is 2 to 3 times more than anyone else, but I am sure that Unai and Monchi have already worked out how to deal with that problem.

Perhaps the idea might be to alternate with Leon Bailey, which might suit both players?

There’s no chance that’d happen.
