I don't rate him, never haveUnder Les Ferdinand:
Luke Freeman, top assists in the league: 4million
Alex Smithies, great goalie for this club: 3,5million
Charlie Austin, 19 Premier League goals: 4million
Jack Robinson: Contract ran out, left for free
And many more mistakes
LES FERDINAND, IT'S TIME TO GO

The way the youth setup was and is we didnt have any choice but to let him go as Liverpool have a higher rating academy than us.
He was also tapped up and wanted to leave so the only optoin was to get the best deal (weather it was the best deal is another matter).
The way the youth setup is now, damages english football as a lot of good youth found by the lower clubs, are pinch for peanuts from the lower clubs, dont develop and flop.
Before the lower clubs kept them unless the received a great offer, that meant bigger clubs would do there home work and only offer money for kids they believed in.
Now, they pinch anyone they want as there is no lost to them (or minimal) if they dot make it, so your now seeing the results where there are not as much good english youngster's around.
As well as cutting of the life blood of clubs like Crewe etc... just another rule made to make sure the top teams stay at the top.
Thats IMO
Thats IMOOne for all.... and all for one

500k for a 15yr old was excellent business at the time. For every Sterling, there are 10 Dean Parretts. Hindsight is a wonderful thing etc...
It says on wiki the fee could rise to 5mil, wonder what the requirements are. Must be due some money soon!?

Not really sure there is a lesson to be learnt here Shania.
We did all we could to keep Raheem Sterling but unfortunately a far bigger club with better resources tapped him up and his head was turned. This unfortunately is the way of modern football. Personally I think we did the right thing in thrashing out as good a deal as we could, 500k doesn't sound like a lot but for a 15 year old it is massive, I'm also assuming we've had a few million more on add-ons by now as well.
