A 3rd choice keeper only needs to be good enough to be 3rd choice. With that in mind I couldn't give a **** who he is. Anyone, so long as he's cheep.

Who's our goalkeeper coach? Do they need a hand? If we brought in someone like Paul Robinson wo's been there and done that then maybe he could help out on the coaching side as well as being 3rd choice. Not sure if he's got a club at the moment or whether he's still hanging round Blackburn.

That sounds like a better idea. <ok>
 
Harper confirmed till end of season. BBC.

Sunderland have signed former Newcastle goalkeeper Steve Harper on a deal until the end of the season.

The 40-year-old, who had been without a club since leaving Hull in May, will be third choice behind Vito Mannone and Jordan Pickford.

Harper played 199 times for Sunderland's rivals Newcastle from 1993 to 2013.

"Steve will be a positive addition to our goalkeeping stable," said Sunderland boss Sam Allardyce.

"He has vast experience at the top level and that can only be beneficial to Vito and Jordan as they continue to develop."

Sunderland sold goalkeeper Costel Pantilimon to Watford this week.

I think this is a good idea. It gives us a capable 3rd choice without spending any of the money we got for Costel.

Vidic is being linked with Villa now. We should be all over that one and break the bank for his wages, him being a free agent should help that.
Dreadful final months at United and nightmare at Inter, are you sure?! Break the bank for him? Couldnt agree less.

Yeah, I'm sure. He's clearly a class above anything we have at the moment and if we could get him on a short term deal until the end of the season, then I would be all for it.
