so all the rumours & speculation is over with the transfer window being shut. I honestly reckon this has been our best window since when we bought in ashley young and others in that one massive spend that lerner did when he first took over. think with 2 new CB's coming in, I wanna see micah transition back into that RB position which would complete and make our starting back line very strong(amavi,ilori/clark/okore,lescott,richards)
although I am disappointed that a ST wasnt bought in because that is the only position that I'm worried about, I actually reckon that ayew will score more then gestede this year and think ayew will become good and hit 10+ goals this year in the BPL.
thoughts on the window in general???

Totally agree Micah should go to rb then we have okore/ilori and clark/lescott fighting for centre back spots

Richards was brought in as a centre back, ts likes bacuna so I believe he will play there more often, Richards and lescott at the back for me

Think we've made great strides in shoring up the backline, which is key. Like most, I am disappointed that we didn't add a striker. It's a shame Berbatov was unreasonable, as I think he could have done a job with his experience for a year. To be honest, any proven striker would have been a good addition. I'm also slightly disappointed we were in conversations with Anderlecht and didn't do a deal for Praet while at it. I do wonder what this means for Siegrist. With Siegrist & now Sarkic, as well as 3 keepers in the first team (Guzan, Steer and Bunn) will we be moving any of them on? I'm also curious as to the terms of the new contracts for Clark, Baker and Bennett. I'm assuming Sherwood is trying make sure we don't lose them for nothing and can hopefully generate some revenue. I can't see Baker having a future if he's going out on loan at 24. With Amavi on the books Bennett's future doesn't look to bright either. I do worry that we're going to struggle for goals but am far more optimistic about the coming season and do believe that Sherwood won't let us find ourselves in another relegation battle.

Well business done just hope when we report back January were not crapping our selves again,best signings IMO Adama,Amavi,Gueye,Richards and perm signing Sinclair. Ayew,Gestede,vertout taking time ATM. Lescot I think can be great for us and the loanee from Liverpool I've seen scousers going mental of our capture so looking forward to seeing them in action,many of us probs disappointed no striker brought in but it is what it is now so onwards upwards. just a thought with TS bringing in fair few CB's could the a possible formation change 3CB's Amavi,Bacuna wingbacks as both can play those positions. anyway best of luck villa see you all January no doubt lol :))
