We finally start to bring through young players of real quality and people want to sell them and replace with teams above us cast offs. If Walcott was any good why aren't Utd, Madrid, Barca and the likes in for him? a decent player for sure but why sell out top prospect at such a tender age - are we now Everton? Sterling will sign a new contract and the message is clear to all that this is the club for young players to grow. So when the next big thing is up for grabs we will be their first choice. Sterling is the firt of a long line of top young players coming through. totally agree..people saying he will never be a barnes..the kid is barely 18..where was barnes at 18? when sterling gets some muscle in the next few years he will be unstoppable and very like barnes.

Agree he has dropped off a little in recent times but that's because he is still a kid and playing week in, week out will tire kids at that age. I believe he needs a rest to refresh himself especially with the schedule over Christmas/New Year. He did his time at youth level and has now stepped up to senior level and will only get better as he gets older, develops and builds experience and strength.

Err dont you think thats being over optimistic? Just what has Sterling actually done this year? 5 assists and 1 goal isn't a bad return for a 17 year old in his 1st season. He gets himself into good areas to shoot as well and that is an area that can be worked on. I can see him reaching double figures for goals regularly over his career

I think we should keep him..I can see him excelling as long as his ego doesn't get too big. Sign Reus

Add to that the fact that he is easily man-handled, and it's clear that he is still not a complete player and likely to improve. We will get more money if we wait.
