Around £5.5m. Wow. £10m for him and Chopra: I just saw the ghost of Tore Andre Flo.

Oh dear.

From one disaster signing to another.

RELEGATION BECKONS.

History shows that he plays well in a poor team. He had his best ever form while playing for WBA. I think he might shine at Sunderland.

He thinks he's a footballing god now though, he didn't really at WBA when he looked good.

I wonder if Keano will let him buy his Baby Bentley now?

and, like his cousin, a massively deluded sense of his own talent and what he has achieved from what i hear of things

utd fans always hated him, be interesting to see how he does under keane

Theres an interview with Richardson on SSN where he says not only how much of a massive club Sunderland is, but also that they are looking for a CL finish.

To aid them in this quest, they've signed that well known international superstar, Dickson Etuhu from Norwich.

What's really insulting is the implication that Richardson is nearly 3 times better than Jaaskelainen.

all about contracts HP

transfer fees no longer imply worth, unless Okocha was worthless

at least we'll never have to suffer him playing for England again

There are some quotes attributed to Keane about Richardson during one of his rants are there not?

Blue_nose_boy · Post by **Blue_nose_boy** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 9:12 pm

over priced for a fairly average player but thats they way its going at the moment

Batman · Post by **Batman** » Tue Jul 17, 2007 9:13 pm

Good signing.

England International, 22, versatile.

As long as his slag of a cousin stays darn sarrf then I'll be happy.

Debateable, especially at the price.

Nozza wrote:England International

Because he was 'playing' for United. Expect that to finish now he's gone to Sunderland.

Nozza wrote:versatile

Doesn't have a position that he's any good enough in to call his own.

Dave Sutton's barnet · Post by **Dave Sutton's barnet** » Wed Jul 18, 2007 11:24 am

Since you're both around, Nozza and Blurred, and you've both rated him as more valuable than Jaaskelainen...

Daily Mail wrote:Sunderland will smash the British transfer fee for a goalkeeper on Wednesday by paying Hearts £9m for Craig Gordon.

A bargain?

Knowing what we know now, how much would we pay for a 5 years younger Jussi? (I know Gordon is more than 5 years younger...)
