I wonder something : how getting a GK can increase our merchandising ?
No disrespect to the guy, but do you often see people with the shirt of a GK from any team ?
Personnally, I don't ... So I don't think it opens a market. If we sign a defender, a midfielder or a striker, why not, but no way a GK will allow us to sell more shirts in Asia !! And if this GK never plays, it's even worse, as that won't make the Asian/Japanese medias talk more about us.
In an "ideal world" (regarding marketing), we should have signed Nagatomo, who isn't a bad player and who is as good as our LBs (maybe even better ?), when we could, and we should sign a guy like Bradley from Chievo (an interesting player who shines with his NT and who always runs with Chievo, I think he would fit our team). These both players could be involved in our results and as a consequence, they would help us to gain some more credit in Japan and the USA.
The other solution, and the one I prefer, would be to become again the best team in Europe by winning both domestic and European trophies during some years, no matter the nationality of our players, and that would open new markets to us ...
