Southampton legend Matt Le Tissier says Raheem Sterling shouldn't be hammered if he leaves Liverpool.
Sterling has been stalling over signing a new deal at the club and is being monitored by Arsenal, Real Madrid and Manchester City.
"If he wants to go and make as much money as he can - and I wouldn't criticise him for that - then absolutely fine," Le Tissier told Sky Sports.
"That could mean he could go to one of the big boys abroad. Is that going to be the best for his development? Possibly not."
