So we've got him on loan, if he's any good and we wan't him come summertime they get first dibs on Young. I know their plan!

When's Cummings going to get 20 mins or so?

I'm happy enough. We're in the shit, he's looked a good player when I've seen him, and it's a position where we've needed his type for a long time.

Why should this new signing play against Sheffield United ahead of Lichaj?
Because he might be a better player?

And Lichaj's last outing wasn't without it's problems.

Possibly, but who knows? Lichaj has done OK for me.

Presumably the people who have watched both players and decided that this is a necessary signing to make.

Good luck to him, I think there's a chance we could get him permanently because Spurs have Corluka and Hutton and neither of those are particularly old.

I think there are a few other areas in which we need to make signings.

Unfortunately when you're in a relegation battle the signings rarely set the pulse racing.

Warren Aspinall, anyone?

Callaghan and Ormondroyd?

There are, but that's doesn't mean that if there's a good right-back available we shouldn't be trying to improve the side.

What, for a whole 4 months? Please don't refer to this as a signing, because it's not.

At least that, and if it works well then for years afterwards.

And you're quite right, this is just a figment of our imaginations.

Luke Young has a knee problem and may be out for some time. Cuellar is fine away from home at right back to give us solidity, but Walker is a really good player from what I have seen. I would like Gibbs on loan too. Both are better than all of what we have, and the added dimension of a fast, attacking full back is great. I hope there is a buy clause, but fear there is not. Even so, if he helps us stay up, then frankly I don't care. Good signing, and needed position.

He's a good young player in great form and I think he'll be with us permanently. He'd better be, anyway.
Welcome to Aston Villa, Kyle (cant see or hear that name without Mrs Broflowski's voice).
We're in a bit of a sticky situation but we'll be alright. Do your best.

I agree Maz, excellent young player who could be worth quite a bit of money in the future.  Why would Harry let us have him ? 
£12 million and Walker for Ash Young in summer  ;-@

Well if you consider borrowing somebody elses player for a few months as a signing you obviously went to the same school of positive spin as Doug Ellis. I'm glad you are happy with the situation.

A good player has come in to help make our team better.

If you're not glad about that you clearly went to the same school of positivity as Sylvia Plath.
