How do eds, do you know if we have shown interest in Fabinho of Rio alve (loaned to Monaco this season). Has looked like a decent RB. Also is there anything in this talk of Ibrahimovic for £10.9m. Seems unlikely.
Cheers

{Ed002's Note - (a) There is no interest from Liverpool. You need the European pages for these questions. (b) Paris Saint-Germain would be more than pleased to sell Zlatan Ibrahimovic and get his vast wages off the books. Milan would be open to some sort of deal but it would require some financial issues to be resolved.}

Hi Ed, I'm a Swede and as such I naturally love Zlatan along with 10 million other Swedes. What a player he is. So my question to you, do we hold any interest?

{Ed002's Note - I am not aware of Liverpool interest - as I have explained.}

Would you be able to do us and all of Sweden a favour and make a quick call to Henry notifying him that he'd make the cost back in swedish shirt sales in about 30 mins after official signing?

{Ed002's Note - That is obviously not true either. You have an extremely naïve view of the financial aspects of the game.}

New Balance will have paid us a set fee for the jerseys. The only profits we'd make on selling loads of extra jerseys would be from selling them in the club shop.

Just on that ed2, have clubs ever explored the possibility of having a shirt made and reaping the benefits themselves? Instead of payment from nb or whoever?
This question is really badly put, but you catch my thinking.

{Ed002's Note - At lower tiers clubs buy catalogue-available shirts adding club badges and sponsor names - and then sell them to the supporters and make a small profit. At the highest level, clubs want the income, in some cases significant income, from shirt manufacturers. Clubs like Liverpool etc. would never generate anything close to a similar return. They don't have the infrastructure, the outlets, the manufacturing capability, etc., etc..

However, if the football doesn't improve perhaps there is a future in the tacky clothing business.}
