hi ed001 if VVD and naby became available for about £140m-£160m would we have the money to sign both or would we need to sell coutinho. if we go and win Wednesday things will change with funds and players wanting to come.
{Ed001's Note - it is not that simple. How would the payment terms be structured for that money? Would that be an outright payment or be including add ons? Does that include fees? Etc etc.}

That's crazy money for both players. Utterly crazy.

like you said before ed001 the money is to complicated to explain. I was just wondering with maaca's comments that he expected both one more. and to keep phil and which would have been one hell of an outlay by the club. with all the hidden fees that you tells us about that people don't seem to take into account. thanks again ed001.
{Ed001's Note - I am sure that the club would find a way to get the money for both. It might mean loans, but the income from the new TV deal does allow us more flexibility, though it could well impact future transfer windows if we spend too much.}

Your right Ed don't talk to us about money it does confuse us. Anyway most of us on here need to take our shoes and sock's off to count above 10.
{Ed002's Note - I had always susprected Liverpool supporters had many more toes than most.}

Eds I know you don't like talking finance but seems as the can of worms is already open here thought I would chance my arm. Regarding the tv money that all clubs get. Is that a 1 off payment of the full lot or is it spread out over a season or longer.
{Ed002's Note - It is paid in two amounts.}
