The Zlatan

Not open for further replies.
Is he a cunt then? After reading his book and watching the documentary I've changed to thinking he's pretty boss
 
Hm , big signing on fee / hefty wages for a 34 year old.

He's clearly still got ability but I think he'd be a bit of a luxury for our squad.
Don't merchandise sales offset any wage concerns in this case?

Is zlatan a big shirt seller ?

I always thought he was considered by most to be a bit of a cunt.

I also thought the club made relatively little from an individual shirt sale? @Rosco has spoke about it before I think

We make money on the kit deal which gives the right to New Balance to make and sell the kit. The LFC shop is the way we make money from merchandise, not when Mike Ashleys company buys and sells a shirt from New Balance.

Its a myth that grew up in Madrid (and on Football Manager) , when they actually made their money back by selling TV rights when everyone wanted to see Beckham , Zidane play etc. We've never had that flexibility because the league controls the rights.

We were selling more shirts than Madrid in our Adidas days, we still didn't compete with them on wages though.
 
I don't reckon anyone is more likely to buy a Liverpool shirt just because of the name on the back. Don't they just buy one because they like the team then get their favourite player on it?

Most people wouldn't be but there are occasionally players that are liked so much that even neutrals buy stuff with their name on it. Loads of non barca fans have Messi shit

Probably less so in football than other sports.
 
I can see Messi as an exception. To be honest I don't really understand why anyone over the age of about 12 buys one.
 
If you have one of the best players in the world playing for you then you will get much better sponsorship deals.
 
No point in thinking about buying the Zlatan as he is going to get totally crocked on June 13th by John O Shea.
 
At one stage I had vague hopes that the Klopp factor might just enable us to get him, but his value's continued to rise and I can't see it now.

Yeah, if someone had made an outrageous offer for him last summer it might have worked. Now I fear he will be in the galacticos price range.
 
Not that he doesn't look good, but didn't Spurs have a reserve team out and looked like they don't care too much about Europe?

Yeah, they had seven changes from the weekend, but yer man still looked awesome, and the Dortmund interplay between him, Reus, Mkhitaryan and Castro was stunning.
 
If he wants money he would probably go to China. If he wants to play for his boyhood club, then he will go to Arsenal. At 34, I would go to China sign a huge contract and get use to eating Chinese.
 
I think that he will move to Chelsea or Arsenal if he move to the PL. Can't see his wife being happy living in Manchester.
 
Some gems from Zlatan.

Sweden was set to play Portugal in the playoffs while trying to qualify for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, and Ibrahimovic was interviewed about it.

TV4 reporter: Who’ll win the qualifier?
Ibrahimovic: Only God knows
Reporter: It’s kinda hard to ask him
Ibrahimovic: You’re talking to him now

And finally, in response to Arn questioning his desire to play in Manchester because of his wife's likely objections:

Scored four goals today when PSG won 9-0 away against Troyes.
