Hi eds,
Now that Sterling has not signed a new contract and we are looking for a center forward, what you do think are the chances of swapping Benzema and Sterling between Madrid and Liverpool this summer?
{Ed001's Note - low, very low.}

Do we have any interest in benzema? Would be a good signing if we can raise the money.
As for the swap rather take isco. I remember reading Madrid wanted to sell him too
{Ed001's Note - right now, no, but I am sure there would be interest if we could sell some players to raise the funds.}

Do you rate the guy? I think he is a good striker but not a world class one. Rather try for lacazatte
{Ed001's Note - Benzema is the best in the world at bringing others into the game, a perfect partner for any other forward. He is very similar to Giroud, but a lot better. Not the best goalscorer, but still an excellent striker. Lacazette is not interested in moving to us as things stand from what I have been told, so why even compare the two?}

Didn't know that about Lacazatte. We should have gone for him or bony in the summer hut alas hindsight is a wonderful thing.
I still don't think benzema would be the answe? WWould you be happy with him mate? I would rather go for someone cheaper and younger like vietto
{Ed001's Note - I would rather we got someone cheaper, but Benzema would be an improvement over the players we already have up front, other than Sturridge. He would also be a player I feel could partner Studger very well.}
