When was the last time we made new signings before the end of May? I love that they will be here for pre-season.

Emi Buendia last year and Kieron Richardson before him...probably.

[eamonn]

That's amazing. He's proper good.

Can you please elaborate?

[chrisw1]

Hold on to your seats....

Can someone please describe what his attributes are? I read that he's 30, how is he for pace? Is he the fella Newcastle threw money at in January?

30 next year, am hoping he's Thiago Silva like

[kippaxvilla2]

He has a tremendous left foot and has hit some worldy free kicks in his time.  Surprised he’s still only 29.

He's just turned 29 - 30 next March

Do we know if he plays on the left or the right? - is this the exit door for Mings?

He's right footed but plays on the left, so a Mings replacement presumably.

I'm really happy with this signing welcome to Aston Villa Diego.

Strength in depth needed as 5 subs allowed next season

Unless we receive a good offer, I think we should be keeping Mings.

Wiki page already updated 😀😀

It is updated, but looking at stats he’s a bit small for a CB !?

I don't think Mings will stay.  He wants to force his way into the world cup team and he's not doing that from our bench.

There are a lot of seriously bitter fans of other clubs out there. The speed at which we are doing this suggests that since he arrived Gerrard fucking blew his top at the players a few times for being...to be frank utter shit in certain games. Went upstairs. Cornered Purslow and Lange and demanded he get quality players.

[Billy Walker]

For anyone worried about "age", I'm sure Paul McGrath was round the 29 years mark when we signed him.  If this guy proves half as decent a signing we're onto a winner.  UTV
