Tim Sherwood will scour the loan market as part of his efforts to rebuild Aston Villa after the departures of Fabian Delph and Christian Benteke. Players such as James Wilson, the 19-year-old Manchester United striker, and Patrick Bamford, Chelsea’s 21-year-old forward, could be available. Sherwood is also keen on Emmanuel Adebayor, who he had success with at Tottenham, and Bournemouth striker Callum Wilson.
‘There will be players at other clubs where they want their players to go out and play some games,’ said Sherwood. ‘We can be that club.’
Villa completed the £10million signing of left back Jordan Amavi, 21, from Nice.
'He's someone we’ve been tracking for a long time,' said Sherwood.
'He’s dynamic, gets forward, had good delivery, and is a decent size for a left-back.
'He’s quick and aggressive and will be suited to the Premier League. He plays at a high tempo. French football is quite close to English.'

Happy with James Wilson, and Patrick Bamford

But no more loans .......We are not a feeder club

Sounds to me like we're not getting the Delph, Benteke money

I'm not sure about that. I don't think he's stupid enough to replace Benteke with two unproven kids. He may take one of them which would be fair enough but not both.

I reckon Adebayor is the one Shereood wants, it's nailed on for me that we get him if the wage thing can be sorted out

I don't think Sherwood would have bought Amavi and Gueye if money was that tight.

[PaulWinch again]

I don't mind loaning a couple of players to supplement the squad, but I want 3/4 more permanent signings.

[Matt C]

Use the loan system wisely and it can be very productive - just like Everton have done.

[ozzjim]

I do hope either Oulare, Embolo or another young forward with the Benteke like potential is brought in with the money alongside Adebayor. It would be a massive waste of opportunity if we don't at least try and replicate the model by going for a younger version of the big man.

[silhillvilla]

IF sherwood doesn't get the Delph & Benteke money , and some, it's a disgrace.

[Clark W Griswold]

I think Austin would be my choice. Proven at this level from last season, the right kind of age and when you consider (if it does happen) that we will have signed him, Amavi and Gueye for only a fraction over the Benteke value, we will have done quite well.

If we spend £20+ million on Adebayor then it will rank as one of our most stupid transfers ever. He's 31 and possibly the most temperamental footballer in England.

Where have you got that figure from?

[Clampy]

It won't be anywhere near that much.

The sticking point if reported correctly is his wages and a 5 mill fee, and Spurs want him away so even the fee might be negotiable

[silhillvilla]

Surely he will come on a free but with stupid wage demands.

[ozzjim]

2 year deal on say 70k a week and 2.5m signing fee would be what, 9-10m max over the length? If he scored 20 goals in that period compared to many striker deals made, he would be a bargain.

[mr underhill]

is 500k a goal a bargain?
