I read just now that the agent for Sterling is also the agent for Berahino. Neither of those players are of interest to me, but what was interesting is that this agent is potentially going to get The Ox on board.
With all the negative PR about this agent I can only imagine players signing with him are looking for big moves elsewhere, (assumption I know and I don't normally get into this type of thing). But it stood out when I read it as I rate Ox really highly.
So if this is true then I would love us to be in for him, he ticks all the boxes for me as a wide man and if he is looking for a move then this agent seems to be ruthless and make things happen for his clients irrespective of pressure.
I know this is a reach, but what do you guys think?

Huh???
21 May 2015 12:46:00
i rate all 3.
i think berahino will be a better player than kane

Seriously Angelred?
There is a chance Oxlade-Chamberlain is looking for a move, I think he would be "just what we need".

Didn't u post only a few days ago u want to stop paying large fees for potential? So which is it?
No I'd stay clear of the ox he would only be wanting to leave for Madrid on a few years as we are there feeder club.

I really like Ox Beast, I live down by the Emirates and have been lucky enough to go to quite a few games and he really is a gem
I have never heard that there could be any chance that we would get him, there within lies my confusion
21 May 2015 13:02:05
Plus it was quite a positive post too beast ;)

Haha brilliant Chris

He is ready. So is Kane.
I was talking mainly about the ones that will be ready in a few years and spending £30m on those.
£60m on those two would instantly take us to the next level in their positions and 5 year contracts would be fine. You never know with Global Warming they might want to stay in Manchester longer!

I'd take Ox in a heartbeat Great player.

Cheers mate.
I think it was in the Standard it said he is looking to join this agent, one would ask why if he didn't want to force a move somewhere with all the uproar at the minute. Just a bit of speculation and reading between the lines.

Or maybe this agent takes an smaller cut and/or is better at negotiating new terms on a new contract. Or maybe he has fallen out with his current agent who might be pushing for a move so he can make some money out of him.
From what I can gather about Sterlings agent is he is young and the new kid on the block so to speak, So he will be working hard on acquiring new clients to add to his stables. Which means he is probably offering favourable terms to these guys in order to tempt them over.

Hence my use of the words "assumption, chance, speculation, reach".
Maybe Ox joined a secret cult and this guys is the leader? Thanks for your insightful contribution Shappy!

So I assume u wouldn't take him then.
