Kenco Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I'm not saying he isnt a great player' date=' he is just anoying me with the amount of chances he squanders.. 2 in 2 is good but arguably he could of had 4 or 5 from the last 3 games.. which is why id rather have suarez cutting in from wide and have someone else as main striker..[/quote']You wanted to sell him a few posts ago, now you want him out wide.

dking Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 so then surely bringing someone else in is good?Basically I think BR has an idea of how many games he wants Sterling to play, bringing others in isn't about him being pushed down the pecking order. He will get plenty of chances to play because BR wants to play him, and will also be brought in slowly because that's what BR wants. REally don't get what the issue is here. I never said it wasn't good. I was simply stating the fact that he won't be used nearly as much if we sign two more forwards. There is no issue here, from me, and I have no idea why people read into thing's that just aren't there. Seems like the issue here is people trying to argue about daft things. I said Raheem will be pushed down the pecking order, and he will. He won't be first choice anymore. If we play a cup final he won't be part of that front three if everybody is fit, will he? That's being pushed down the pecking order. Or does that not happen at our club? Do we not have first, second and third choice players? How is this even up for debate? Ridiculous.

Rafalution Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 its up for debate because you are talking about pecking order. there is a difference between playing less games because there is more competition and doing it because you are down the pecking order as you note, and I don't see why Sterling wouldn't be playing in a cup final just because we might bring Sturridge and Dempsey in. He's already proved he can hack it at the top against City Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyclonus1010 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Please no more stupid panic buys, all this talk of sign this guy and sign this guy, havent we learnt any lessons? Massive rebuilding job has been undertaken, would rather see us not go crazy, save on wages and get some money in the coffers for Rodgers to use come Xmas or at the end of the season. Happy at the players that have left (loan or otherwise), still a few at the club need to buck up their ideas or be shown the door at a later date. The owners know the size of the job at hand, so does Rodgers, i hope most fans know this too. Sturridge on loan sounds good. Demspey attitude in trying to get move worries me a little. Walcott only has pace, nothing else. And he wants £100k a week? For what? Pace? Only Sturridge on loan please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalution Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Pace and a fantastic goals/assists record last two seasons. It feels like some people still think its 2010 w/regards to Walcott. Doubt that'll happen anyway.n Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeafParrot Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 It's a pretty easy record to accrue when you're either feeding RVP or capitalising on his rebounds. If you actually watch him in games he's still frustrating as hell. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayne'o Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 You wanted to sell him a few posts ago, now you want him out wide. Make up your mind! i said sell him to replace him with aProlific Scorer. the only reason i said sell him was to raise the cash because we havn't got any spare. some times you can sell a player for 25 mill and if you do your scouting you can improve the squad.. Spurs are going to do it in selling Moderic by brining in Moutinho and Moussa Dembely.. Or the other option stop using him as our main striker and put somone there that has a better converstion to shot ratio.. If Reina made 10 world class saves per game but let in 3 goals would you say, he saved 10 shots so he is world class.? the chances Suarez misses at times are mind boggling. if he scored 17 last year, we want to finish higher up and closer to 4th he needs to improve simple as that...

Raheem would be in the first xi based on the few games we've had so far this season. He's not automatically gonna lose that spot just because Dempsey and Sturridge come in, it would be based on performance.

You need that player to be creative and comfortable in the link-up play.

And how do we convince him to come to a non-CL club? It's not a poacher role.
