Hi Eds,

Any ideas what's going to happen with Illori, Wisdom, Luis Alberto and Markovic? They don't seem to have a future at the club but I haven't seen any clubs linked with them.

{Ed002's Note - Ilori has been at the Olympics and will move if a club can be found - else it would need to be a loan. Wisdom - I would like to say a loan but I he could potyentially stay as cover (but then he takes up a squad place) - perhaps some work to do. Alberto will return to Spain. Fenerbahce wanted to sign Markovic but would not give certain guarantees. Fiorentina, Schalke and Roma are all clubs that have contacted his agent but it is Lazio who have had an offer rejected by Liverpool. Milan are open to a move but would prefer a loan.}

Great reply Ed002!

I know you don't want to get into money but without going into detail, is Lazio's offer close to Liverpool's asking price or does that seem unlikely? Does that Milan loan seem more probable?

{Ed002's Note - The Lazio offer was well short of the asking price and I expect Liverpool will want a sale rather than a loan.}

Cheers Ed! We've commanded some decent fees for players we've sold up to press but I can imagine we're pushing our luck a little bit with one or two asking prices, Markovic included.

{Ed002's Note - I would agree.}

The club getting a taste of their own medicine getting offers well short of the asking price, hopefully it'll change how we handle making our own offers in the future.
