I was never a massive fan of this kid either on or off the field when he was at Liverpool. In my opinion he actually had half a season with us when he played some decent football. The way that Sturridge and Suarez where playing at that time I think they would've made me look good! He has serious limitations. His decision-making is weak and that is partly due to the fact that he is not the brightest of individuals. His finishing is seriously poor as evidenced in the recent Capital One cup final.
Kudos to his agent for recognising a money making opportunity. What ever you think of his agent he certainly managed to get an unbelievable deal out of Manchester City for Sterling. Kudos also to Liverpool football club for allowing the sale to go through and making a fantastic profit on this somewhat unpleasant little individual and that's me being polite!
Unless Sterling improves massively next season he will be offloaded. However it is very likely that this kind of player will simply run down his £200,000 a week contract and his agent will probably convince him that this is the right course of action given that his agent will be on a decent percentage of his earnings! It is very unlikely that another City type deal will exist for this player in rhe future. Real Madrid are probably realising that they have had a luck escape that's if there was ever any truth in the transfer rumours !!
