And oh look that 20 year old with 7 goals and 5 assists this season (our highest scorer from open play) has been playing with a toe injury in recent weeks.

Doesn't mean anything! Players do it all over the world. becides he was crap before that haha I remember Suarez playing injured last year, think he got couple goals aswell. Are you Raheems mum? Shall we give him a little trip away again till its better?

Too injury prone and he should be top scorer period, not just from open play, at his age.
Not going to develop anymore and comes across as a troublemaker when most Tweens are so grown up and mature at his age.
Lets get rid.
{Ed001's Note - at 20 years old? Not going to develop any more? I really hope that is a joke. He is miles away from his peak years.}

I'm very much hoping that Zeddicus was being sarcastic
{Ed001's Note - so am I, but I can't remember what he has been saying normally so I am unsure!}

Not sure what everyone is getting on Sterlings back about, he's got a couple of years until his contract runs out, so in no rush from either side, and besides he's no doubt taking his cues from his agent. Most here don't know the real issues, so while it could be money or greed, it may not.
In terms of potential, he's been one of the better performers in the side despite being played in multiple positions, I think we should cut the man some slack as he may well end up being a critical player for us in a couple of years time.

Yep, apologies for worrying anyone, but that was indeed sarcastic!
I do think the way BR likes to hang out all the dirty washing in public is the exact antithesis of the Liverpool Way (does anyone remember that?!?), and he has led to this pressure on a 20yo.
We should be looking to our lack of options for Sterling and the fact that we have piled so much pressure on the lad, rather than bemoaning the fact that a 20yo isn't scoring as much as Ronaldo.
Also, the extra crap in the press due to BR's motor-mouth doesn't help encourage the lad to sign a new contract and move on.
It makes me laugh that a number of posters who bemoan the lack of quality depth in our squad are also on Sterling's based on rumours and innuendo in the press.
Give the lad a break, he's only 20 ffs!!

Stop with the RS bashing because it is getting weak, pathetic and freaking annoying.
