Agreed.
I think Richardson is fine as a squad member. he can do a job there.
But we need someone better in the first XI
I'd go as far as to say I think we could do with brining in two LB recruits. Especially if we end up changing things up and play both 4-4-2 and 3-5-2 formations we could do with having someone who is more attack-minded (wing back type) as well as a true LB. Also, cover is needed.
