Looks like somebody could be loaning Sterling

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/liverpool-transfer-raheem-sterling-out-2688010

Liverpool are set to spark a January transfer stampede by allowing Raheem Sterling to leave on loan.
Mirrorfootball understands the Reds are looking for an experienced replacement for the teenage winger, with Sporting Lisbon's Spanish international Diego Capel under consideration.
Once that man is found, England Under-21 and full international Sterling, will be allowed to join a Premier League or Championship club able to give him regular first-team football.
Earlier this week, boss Brendan Rodgers made it clear that 18-year-old has work to do to become a first-team regular at the Anfield giants.
The youngster enjoyed an excellent campaign last year, with 36 Liverpool senior appearances and a first full England cap.
Rodgers, however, now prefers the Luis Suarez, Philippe Coutinho and Jordan Henderson triumvirate behind striker Daniel Sturridge.
That's reduced Sterling to getting up to this sort of thing with England U21s:

I'd like to see him play week in week out with a team in the premiership of championship. It has done other players wonders. Whilshire, Wellbeck, Cleverly etc.

Sturridge at Bolton. It was so obvious the kid had the goods.
 
I'm a bit ambivalent, if you can be a bit ambivalent. There's surely a mental problem with Sterling that needs sorting out. Of all our young players, he's the least who needs a loan. He lost form after being overplayed while he had a thigh problem. I'm not sure what loaning him out will do. Isn't Rodgers a good man manager and a good coach? Isn't Peters a good sports psychologist? Then shouldn't they keep working with him? If he impressed last year, and now seems so out of sorts, is playing elsewhere the solution, rather than an admission of failure? I'm not knocking the idea so much as questioning its logic.

It's true that nobody was slagging him off last season but I've always had my doubts since I started watching him in the youths and reserves. It's still too soon to write him off but I've never understood why Rodgers thought he deserved to be elevated to the first team and I'm a long way from convinced that he'll ever become a top Premier League player. I think a loan is the only option because it's hard to justify selecting him for 1st team duty at present and we would guage his development if he was playing regularly for Norwich, Palace or whoever.
 
I had more reservations than most, but he certainly excited when he started. For me, you send someone of that age out on loan if you still don't know what they really can do, or you know what they can do but want them to get game time. You don't send them out to be coached and you don't send them out to solve some kind of mental crisis. There's something worrying about what happened to him and I'm just not convinced sending him to another club will solve the problem rather than just put it out of view. Of course, it would be better if we had a decent track record with loans, but most of them have been hopeless - the right manager for the player leaves almost as soon as they arrive, the director of football does the deal only for the manager to sulk and refuse to play him, etc etc.

Teenager in line for January move to a Premier League or Championship club for regular first-team football

Liverpool are set to spark a January transfer stampede by allowing Raheem Sterling to leave on loan.
Mirrorfootball understands the Reds are looking for an experienced replacement for the teenage winger, with Sporting Lisbon's Spanish international Diego Capel under consideration.
Once that man is found, England Under-21 and full international Sterling, will be allowed to join a Premier League or Championship club able to give him regular first-team football.

It means Sterling, shown here with the U21s, will get the chance to produce this kind of skill on a regular basis elsewhere.

So loan them some more. Make them a very good team with our fringe players, but an absolute shite one when they play against us.

Aren't we only allowed to loan one player out to any Premier League club at a single time?

Isn't that part of the reason West Ham had to permanently transfer Joe Cole, since they already had Carroll on loan from us?
 
I hope we don't buy Capel.

As for Sterling, I don't see any point keeping him at the moment - we should've loaned him out at the start of the season - because regardless of what his issues are, he doesn't look like he's going to get any time or attention this season. We're not even playing with wingers at the moment, which means none of them are getting a look in - not just Sterling.

I think players can resolve 'coachable' or mental issues whilst out on loan. The club just need to send him to a club with people they know and trust. The problem there is that is far less likely to be a Premier League club.

That's the problem. Clubs with a trustworthy manager who'll stay there and do what LFC want done with the player are few and far between. I can only think of Karl Robinson at MK Dons, but that's hardly the most appealing place.
 
would be great to loan him to a premiership team, he needs to play every week, he'll be a star here if he does
 
If he goes to a London club he'll never come back. He'd want to stay. That leaves, out of the non-hoofing teams, Norwich - that would be suitable but it's unlikely they'll avoid sacking their manager - Newcastle - where he'd be under just as much pressure as here - Cardiff - another club in chaos - Southampton - which could be ideal except they don't need him - and Villa - not a bad idea but do they need him? Steve Clarke at West Brom seems like the least worst option. Going down a division after playing in Europe and being in senior England squads doesn't strike me as the most propitious way of getting his head right.
 
Sterling made an impact when he first made the first team, but he has faded a bit lately. He has the skills but I think he is too easily brushed off the ball by muscular defenders. As he is a young player, he probably still has time to bulk up a bit and a loan move might be good for him.
 
I think he's the reason Rodgers is now so cautious with Ibe and others. Sterling had shown glimpses of exciting quality in the youth team without ever looking like he was banging on the first team door. His final ball was wildly erratic, his shooting could be brilliant or woeful, his positional play was still in need of development. I think Kenny was handling him very well - bringing him to Melwood, getting him involved and giving him a taste of the senior team without allowing him or his fans to get carried away. So it was pretty laughable when Brendan was forced to use him a lot and some people rewrote history to suggest he'd been some shiny gem kept locked up at the Academy. The only thing I'd question Brendan for was playing him far too long after he looked shattered and was carrying a muscle tear, but otherwise he did what needed to be done. I think now he just wants to err on the side of caution with the other young players, which makes sense, but so much of it at that age is psychological. Once the adrenalin rush fades you've usually just got a kid out there who isn't very bright. I'd rather Inglethorpe took him back away from the spotlight and worked with him in the ressies for a bit.
 
Anyone who followed him during his time in the U18s and the reserves and didn't think he was gonna become something special is fucking mad. The kid was sick but it just hasn't worked for him with big boys. Could be his size...
Anyway, I always thought Suso was ahead of him in pretty much every department.
