Carlos Sanchez

Now we just need to lock up Vlaar and Delph to new deals

I'd actually be feeling, relatively, optimistic if that happened. Can't see it though. How many caps would Delph have by now if he played for some Sky-beloved team? Plus Vlaar's agent will be thinking he can pimp his client out for maximum moolah after his impressive World Cup.

I'll settle for at least one of them being here this time next year, but I reckon both will leave on frees.

Delph would probably be sat on the bench at a moneybags club. Too many examples of that to list. He strikes me as a level headed bloke who wants to work hard and play every week, very much like James Milner...oh...damn!

Welcome to the greatest club on earth Carlos.

Typical Villa, signing players! I wonder if those giving the club stick yesterday for not having him signed will give them credit today?

Credit to the club yes but we are still miles off where we should be.

[Legion]

We're on the right road.

[PeterWithesShin]

We're on the right road.

All we have to do is carry on all the way to the end.....

[BoskoDjembaSalifou]

Exciting signing. He's a proven player in a position we've badly needed to strengthen for a while.

Attacking player next. Gnabry on loan would be fine.

The way may be long, though.

This.
As for the second paragraph, they very rarely do, PWS

Carlos - welcome to AVFC

[paulcomben]

This seems to be going rather better than expected. We'll all get vertigo if Villa stick around 12th place all season.

Where should we be? Begining to sound like Geordies.

[PaulWinch again]

This is the first signing for a while that's genuinely excited me, because it's a position we've badly needed for a while and from what I've seen(albeit not much) he looks a quality player.

[exigo]

A Guzan-Vlaar-Okore-Sanchez-Delph-Benteke spine is something to look forward to. If we can sort the, erm, ribs out then we actually might have a bright future.

[PeterWithesShin]

So we've signed Sanchez, Sisqo, Swiss Phil, Richardson and Joe Cole for less than it cost Saints to buy Shane Long. Mental.

When you put it like that we've done quite well.
