this kid had it all and could have been truly great but guess what, you can take the kid out of the hood but you can't always take the hood out of the kid, sterling hangs around with a bunch of idiots who think posting their mate online doing laughing gas is clever and there all living in London, bringing him in would be a huge mistake in my opinion and those of you suggesting to offer theo and money, Im so glad you don't run the club, theo is the best r winger in the league when fit, we also have Wellington silva coming

at MC, they had missed a 6 mil player, Victor Kompany more than they would have liked and you couldn't really say that they had not tried to find quality cover / starter for this position given that they had spend 30 million plus on what initially looks like two top centre
backs the

back to partner Koscielny because to be honest Koscielny's injury record isn't that great either (he's missed 22 games in the
