Well done Mr Lambert, and all connected.
I think we should give credit where it's due. The people at Villa trying to get this deal done have got the better of Cleverley's agent, Everton and Manchester United. We have gamed the regulations in our favour, and got a ruling from the Premier League that suits us.For a club that supposed to be naive and a soft touch when it comes to transfer dealings, that's not bad going.

Sign Benteke and Vlaar...He wasn't CEO for the first, and the others were reasonably straightforward purchases.Edit. Actually he probably was CEO for the first.
That Harj seemed to think it was still happening.
