What They're Saying
Stoke City manager Mark Hughes (via Sky Sports): "He [Asmir Begovic] is playing on Sunday and is somebody that we want to keep here, as I have said many times before. We will sit down with him, speak to him and his people and look for those talks to come to a positive conclusion."
Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers (via BBC): "Raheem [Sterling] has two years left on his deal and I expect him to see that two years through."
