Think the Mirror have plucked the figures out of the air.

Nothing official yet, but as this seems to have legs, he gets his own thread.MirrorQuoteMicah Richards has agreed to join Aston Villa after turning down a lucrative deal from Sunderland.Sunderland had offered the right back around £90,000-a-week, but he chose Villa - and a deal understood to be around £65,000-a-week - after a personal intervention from Tim Sherwood.The sought-after 26-year-old, had also been pursued by West Ham following his release from Manchester City.The Villa boss is understood to have convinced Richards that he would play a key role in his new-look side and that he would be helped in his bid to break back into the England picture.Richards has been at Italian club Fiorentina on loan but has made just 20 appearances for the Serie A club.He has been keen to come back to the Premier League for some time, despite interest from Inter Milan, managed by his former City boss Roberto Mancini.

Quote from: Risso on June 11, 2015, 08:46:38 PMLast time he played regularly, he was very good, and then lost his place to Zabaleta which is no disgrace.Not sure I could ever forgive his potty mouth when he got the winner against us though. How uncouth! Last minute equaliser. Stupid ko time on a Sunday, shit crowd and atmosphere, was a pretty miserable game to be at. And we lost the replay.

Is MON back in charge of our transfer policy?Is there anything you couldn't see the black side of?Why do you care? Not everyone has to be positive all the time. If Richards stays fit, he'll be a good signing, but Man City would've kept him for their homegrown quota, so does that suggest there's something bigger? My main worry is that we'll give him a 3/4/5 year deal on 65k a week and end up getting about 10 appearances in return.
