"He has done well for us. He has worked hard but he is on amazing money," Redknapp said.<br />

''The other week, one of the lads told him that he had not paid his &pound;50 fine for being the worst player in training on a Friday morning. One of the lads said to him: 'Bloody hell, Ade, you are on 200 grand a week and you can't afford to pay a &pound;50 fine!' He replied: 'Don't insult me, it's 225!'."
