"Simply red what on earth has his personal life got to do with either his birthday or the club so what if he has 2 kids. He is a great prospect who can help further himself and the club and mature together."
"Happy Birthday Raheem.
I had hoped for an instant contract signing, which would show a real commitment to the club and to quash all this rubbish about demanding over-the-odds fees.
I don't think there's any club out there that would be better suited for him at this moment."
"why are we creating so much hype around him? He is a special talent but let us be anchored. He shall not oblige us with the contract. Its mutual love between the fans, the club and Raheem. YNWA"
"HAPPY B/DAY BUDDY, HOPE YOUR CONTRACT IS SORTED FOR YOU. IT WOULD BE NICE TO SCORE A COUPLE FOR YOUR B/DAY TOMORROW AGAINST THE HAM. YOUR A YOUNG MAN WITH A BRIGHT FUTURE HOPE IT GOES RIGHT FOR YOU AND NOT TO YOUR HEAD. JUST REMEMBER BUDDY NOT TO MUCH TO SOON. YNWA"
"Happy belated B'day Raheem,,what's this about you having 2 kids ? Oh well..!!
Ill be at the game tomorrow, so please let's win, we'll be singing our heart out. You and jonjo to score 0-2 :-D
Reina,john,skrt,agg,enriq,lucas,allen,G,suso,sterling,jonjo.. Sub:assai,cole,downer,hendo,carra,yesi,sahin"
"Happy Birthday Lad.... in line with BR's words regarding much pressure being put on young talent these days i totally agree.... so I wont say you are the best winger/wide attacking option at Anfield since the great John Barnes.... sign the contract Raheem and be part of the revolution..... we all trust in the way we are heading. YNWA"
"His a chance in a million to develop and get game time at liverpool fc, and he know it, actually everyone know it. So as BR said its only a matter of time, that a new contract will signed. Happy birthday raheem sterling.YNWA"
"think that keep Raheem here for many years is a must, the lad needs to grow progressively his talent, skills and top flight experience, and believe it will be a good thing near to him another right winger, new and more experienced, who can help him in that growth. Did you understand BR & FSG? Happy birthday Raheem, keep working hard and with calm! You need time, you have time! YNWA RS"
"Raheem will make the right decision all he has to do is look at what's happend to Scott Sinclair he had a grate future ahead of him and now is say on a bench. If demands are too high then cash in on him no ones bigger than the club YNWA"
"I just hope it does not all go to his head, just keep your feet on the ground and you could be another Robbie Fowler instead of another like Torres ! "
"have a good birthday and hope you have a special day tomorrow and hopefully a goal to remember it by. 3 pts is a must so a good team performance against hammers needed. YNWA"
"I'm sorry but i am going to get slated for this comment i dont think Raheem is as he thinks he is or some fans think he is it is impossible to tell if he will become world class he needs to sign the contract or put in a transfer request this club is bigger than anyone happy birthday Raheem YNWA at Liverpool "
"Sign that contract ASAP lad then you can concentrate on your job SCORING GOALS.....Dare i mention his name connected with yours but its true BARNES in the making!!!! YNWA"
"To Buddha, how much do you think we would have to pay to get FT back? I think it would be 30m at least, I think we could spend that money on a better player than him, he was rubbish in his last 18months with us and hasn't improved much since
"
"Loc thru thick + thin, I agree it's highly unlikely but... 6 weeks ago who'd have guessed Di'Mateo would be out of a job? As they say it's a funny old game!!"
"I'm a HUGE LIVERPOOL FAN and i will be working at Upton Park tomorrow so i will get to meet all the players and I hope tomorrow is a good match and my good friend Carlton Cole plays well but does not score hehe"
"NME2THEST8, YES YOU'RE RIGHT, STRANGE THINGS HAPPEN IN FOOTBALL. CAN'T SEE IT HAPPENING MYSELF AND I'D RATHER WE LOOKED ELSEWHERE CONSIDERING THE WAY TORRES JUMPED SHIP A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO. "
"Agreed, he had his chance with us and his ati.tude let him down big time, both in his performances and his departure from the club, no doubt he's a talented footballer, but for the money he'd cost, I think we can do better (aguero, hazard, van persie were all similar price)"
"I agree with what you are saying on this issue Buck. He's got lots of potential, but so far hasn't produced where he needs to. If we pick up 2 goal scorers in the next windows, Raheem will be on the bench, where an 18 year old should be, getting hungry."
"If he wants a King-size contract, then, let him go join some other club. I know this sounds a little harsh but then no one is above the club. Hope Sterling and his agent are able to see the new 'financial' reality at Liverpool. "
"Happy Birthday! He's a good player but if he left he could get swallowed up by chelsea,utc or city- can you see him developing at city? Me, neither. Here with careful rather than careless spending we will play him and he has a chance to be an international, not a bench-warmer."
"Happy Birthday lad, keep your feet on the ground, sign a contract and commit yourself to LFC where you will become a legend. Just look what happened to Michael Owen and Nando Torres after they left - never played half as well as at LFC. Repay the faith YNWA"
"It would be a big loss if he joins other club. But cant let agent negotiate too much. Only 18 yo, you don't know what will happen to you. A few more years with Liverpool, maybe your resume will look much better."
"Happy birthday Raheem. Hope you have a great day, we are all confident you will have a great future with LFC, a legend in the making. Hope you score a goal. Happy birthday lad from Dave and Ben."
"He'll sign and will have a great future. Shame that dimwits take a story about Raheem and try to turn it into a trolling expedition against other Liverpool players, hoping for a row... But I guess they wouldnt be playing their role of a thick troll if they didn't..."
"Many Happy Returns young man! Don't blow a brilliant future with the reds by being too greedy. I've been watchin for nealry 50 years and seen them all come and go. Can't even remember the names of some of the "flash in the pan" merchants. You don't want to be one of them. you ant to be a legend like Barnesie and Rushie."
