@JongsmaJongsma: FC Groningen director Hans Nijland compliments Aston Villa. 'The way the transfer has been handled is like we wish it would always go.'

Brilliant business thus far. 4 (as good as done it seems) in so far. All seem very promising.

Another 2-3 in and we're pretty much done. I'd like to see us bring in a few English players before the windows out too. Murphy and Cresswell perhaps? We should set an example and help develop decent young English talent at the highest level. Lowts and Westy have already proved brilliant business and seem destined for the national team too. More of that would be nice.

reminds me of Big Fat Ron's triple signings.....quite exhilarating

haven't looked forward to a season starting for such a long time

any more Dan?

As soon as the final 'in' has his picture taken, we can close the transfer window.

That's not the first time a club has said that about us.  It is really good to hear at least we do things the right way.  Things like that make me really proud of my club.

Amazing that the national media have not picked any of this up ... all up their own arses about Chelski's signing of Schurrle.

@StanCollymore: #AVFC #UTV We're mopping up the promising youth from everywhere! Nice to see us being proactive!

Great to get some new blood in so early in the summer. Those extra weeks in training together means we may get a better start than we did last season when the signings came in late. Good work all round, UTV

NEXT!!

Its great to hear all the poisitvity and general good vibe from fans towards the signings the kit the manager and the direction headed. I also want some English players in - and to develop those we already have. There is an undoubted gamble with these players we are bringing in but i like many of us am happy. Its interesting villa looked abroad thus far.

What happened to the chap that was seen pictured at Villa Park?  Blond guy I think, Dutch or German maybe?

[oldtimernow]

Have they got revolving doors fitted at BH yet?

As the club have already done a Villa Hardcore badge, maybe it's time for them to do a Villa Youth one?

Perhaps if other clubs see us signing players cheaper from abroad, they may not be too pushy to get a better price from us as they have seen we will just look elsewhere.
