Loose change to them footie players.
Still, his agent's cost him 2.3m quid!
Amazing.
The agent could still have whored his client around after the contract was signed.
I'd understand it with only a year remaining, but Sterling still had 2.5 years left on his contract at the time.
So, let me get this right, according to the Guardian he no longer wants to play for Rodgers because Rodgers didn't take him seriously about his desire to leave and that the club didn't inform him of inquiries from City & Utd?
What the fuck does that actually mean - didn't take his desire to leave seriously enough?

Well, no he hasn't. He's been away like every player and every staff member because it's been the Summer break, so he hasn't said anything about anyone. Any "sticking up for him" was done prior to this dirty tricks campaign really kicking off. He was on a hiding to nothing over the Stoke game and whether to play him or not. If he hadn't played him and he criticised him in public, then his subsequent decision to leave would have been blamed squarely on Rodgers.
Read the thread, if people are willing to surmise that the root of this is Rodgers sending him home three years ago from the USA (he really stuck up for him there, didn't he?), then they'd have blamed him if he had publicly took the lad to the cleaners over this. Or as it is, you're blaming him anyway.
It's not gutless at all, when the time is right he'll put the record straight, getting into a slanging match through the press is unprofessional and stooping down to the level of Sterling and his agent.
It's just another day on Aidy Ward's big wheel of ideas. I just want to be known as a kid who loves football? Didn't work. I want a song sung for me? Didn't work. Slagging off Carragher and saying my client wouldn't accept 900k a week? Didn't work. Refusing to go on the pre-season tour? Didn't work. Calling in sick? Didn't work. Blaming everything on the manager? That's going to work, right?
Every single move Ward/Sterling make right now strengthens our position because nothing of what is coming from the sterling and ward show is believed.

This. Ward's fledgling agency looks all out of ideas. I don't suppose they've thought of building bridges and biding their time?
Don't think so. The Ox and one or two others aren't said to have jumped ship yet. Mightn't be long though, at this rate.
It means he and that fat waster of an agent have run out of semi-convincing reasons to put up, and are being forced to dig into the obviously daft ones.
Berahinho has dumped Aidy Ward as an agent - I think it's rather obvious Sterling may be Ward's last good footy client as people are seeing what a poisonous, odious cunt he is.
I am not sure what the right course of action here is ... but I think we should tell Sterling, you either shut up and play for LFC, or you play for the reserves until the end of your contract. Yes, we'd lose x0 million pounds in the process, but I think we need to take a stand against shit (unless City stop their crap and offer what we want, and then fuck him off quickly).
I don't 'hate' Sterling anymore - I pity him. It's kinda obvious a kid we spent 5 years helping get to where he is picked a terrible agent that has manipulated him accordingly. He won't be with us much longer - unless something happens - and I don't wish crap on him. Oh well.

I don't wish cr@p on him but I suspect it's coming. If he goes to Citeh he'll be a bench player, at least to begin with, and in those circs.could quite conceivably lose his England place too. If he stays at LFC he's comprehensively fouled his own nest.
I suspect you're letting him off a bit too lightly BTW. For sure he's been poorly advised, but if Berahino can f'ck Ward off Sterling could have as well.

I'm repeating this - but please, NO NO NO NO NO! NO!!!
Leave the U21s alone. What possible benefit can it have on our U21s to have him there, with that attitude of his?
You're assuming Berahino is dropping Ward because of noble reasons though.
It's getting quite amusing to be honest. I can't wait for the next nonsense tactic by Sterling and Ward.
Accusing the club of releasing Sterling's phone number in order to have him abused by supporters is so ridiculous that it's getting into the realms of fantasy.
I can imagine Sterling ringing Ward every hour on the hour for updates whilst stamping his feet. Ward then comes up with more and more outlandish ideas and tactics to placate Sterling and try and force the transfer through.
I'd be interested to know how much influence his Mother is having in all this.If i remember rightly she was one of those pushy football parents who reportedly insisted on him being given a first team sport when he was 17.

I'm a fucking softie man.
I'm not surprised Berahino split with Ward. No footballer wants to become the poster boy for the spoiled Premiership footballer archetype.
When Sterling got booed while playing for England I was surprised, I didn't expect the generl football population to be so fucked off with him.
If City don't come back with a bid, Sterling has to give Ward the boot. Doesn't he?
Then he gets to come back as the naive young kid who was badly advised.

That's if proper logic works with this kid. Maybe he'll draw another card from Ward's deck of Wonderful Ways. For example, we haven't seen them play the "slave" card yet. Or the "truth" card.
I thought the Ox's dad was his agent. It was only recently that there was talk of him joining up with Ward.
Yep.
And City (if they have any chops)must be looking at this thinking 'do we want to be saddled with a player with this gormless cunt agent?' If this agent's shown he's prepared to treat Liverpool like this, then what would stop him doing it at City?
The article were they reported about Berahino leaving Ward did refer to him as his other high profile client.
No mention of Ox or any others.
Sterling has acted like a gigantic cunt and I cant stand him. But I dont agree with all the abuse he's getting from the fans with showing up at his house, phone calls and racist messages. Just makes our fans look stupid.
Boo him at the match - fine. But all the other stuff is just awful.

What a bunch of thick cunts.
City rep : "Hey aidy...get raheem to move here...pull out the stops and be total cunts"
Ward : "ok then"
City rep : "Nah dont want him now. your both total cunts"
