2015 Summer Transfer Thread

You literally said "City gave up on Sterling" which clearly is not even remotely close to the case.

Does gave up and have no interest mean the same things?  I don't think so.  

Most analysts reported that with acquisition of Delph, Manchester City have more wiggle room.  They also reported that Manchester City can just walk away just like they did last year with Ross Barkley.  Clearly Manchester City are still trying to get Sterling for 40m plus maybe add-ons.  If Manchester City buys Sterling for 50m, they will likely get sanctioned again next year.

To me, give up means stop bidding, which they haven't done...

They bid 40m which got rejected...  They did not submit a new bid, they got together with Liverpool officials to see their demands and if agreement can be made.  There was no new bids as of today.

Manchester City is still interested but not for 50m.  Liverpool said they want 50m after rejection, Manchester City never submitted a bid for 50m.  Now they negotiating to see how far both sides off.  If Liverpool continue to stay on their 50m valuation of Sterling, City might just pack and leave... Just like it happened with Ross Barkley last year.

After they got together today to negotiate...  If there is going to be a bid, it will be a final take it or leave it bid.  The whole goal of getting together today was to come to an agreement.  They might meet again tomorrow.  There might not even be another bid.

If I listen to what Express reports... Arsenal would already bought Benzema, Vidal, and many other players.

Uh, the Liverpool beat writer who Tony Barrett cites? Yea, I think I'll trust him over you're opinion.

BBC and Sky report nothing... Again... Express never got anything right... 

Apparently contract that was offered in June was 35m plus 4m in add-ons.  Not straight 40m cash.  Liverpool wants 50m cash.  So technically they are 15m apart or 42% increase.

Reports are Manchester City is willing to increase their last and final bid by 5m cash...  So 40m plus 4m in add-ons.  The bid was not made, they will get together on Saturday to discuss it.  Apparently this is as high as Manchester City is willing to go.

Also, Sterling did not hand in his Transfer Request cause if he does, he will forgo his loyalty bonus.  If Liverpool sales him within certain time frame, they can also save money on his loyalty bonus which some say are in millions.

Yea, Sterling is a sheisty little fug not handing in a transfer request. He stands to make a ton of money and he's worried about a few million, which he would have already pocketed had he signed his £100k/week contract in January.

Manchester City will give him around 150-200k a week...  That's another thing with City... Their salaries are so outrages, they can't sell players so players have to just wait til contract expires...

Arsenal had to sale Podolski for 1.5m just to get read of his 120k a year salary...  City pays everyone 150-300k... Good luck selling players with these salaries...
