    Football world is awash with stupid money -Jobe Bellingham sold for approx 34 Million

    Following in the steps of his elder brother to Borussia Dortmund , Sunderland have sold the 19 year old for a ridiculous amount of money.

    I saw this lad in several games last season and although he has a burst of speed, I've not seen anything special about him at all. He barely shone in the final at Wembley against Sheff Utd.

    Where do they get these ridiculous sums from? The Sunderland co-owners, Kyril Louis-Dreyfus and Juan Sartori, must be laughing all the way to the bank with this sale......Quite frankly, it's unbelievable Jeff!

    I'm glad it's not just me that thinks that about Jude Bellingham. Totally overhyped by the media, described as world class when in reality he's just another decent midfield player on a par with many others in the Premier League.
    As Brin says, ?34 million for his brother is laughable but fair play to Sunderland for negotiating that fee. Perhaps our directors could take some lessons from them.

    What I call world class in men's sport it's Sinner v Alcaraz yesterday in the most gruelling of the tennis majors in the final of the French open. No comparison anyone in the present England men's football side.

    34 million os the basic brin. Add-ons take it to 41 million plus there's a 15% sell-on. Sunderland have done good
