You dont normally see soccer teams offer a roster player for another. Its not like the NHL where 'hockey' trades are made, one teams need for another's.

And if City wanted Sanchez why wouldnt they just buy him? Or are the Sheikh's purse-strings a little tight after the Neymar deal?
nah, offering Sterling as part of a deal is just an attempt to get Arsenal to sell. They probably won't sell Sanchez to another PL club, so City probably thinks that including a young talented player might enhance their chances.
