Looks like a triple signing today!

Nantes midfielder Jordan Veretout will have a medical at Aston Villa on Friday ahead of a proposed move to Villa Park, according to Sky sources.

It promises to be a busy day for the Villa medical staff with Rudy Gestede also set for a medical at the club after a deal was reached with Blackburn.

Adebayor medical and terms all agreed.

I think Sherwood has done well so far, but have a feeling this is the end of his transfer business, what does anyone else think?

I think villa have done extremely well so far. My guess is that we are all filled with optimism now. A fresh start, the loyal fans have been rewarded. In terms of transfers, I wonder if Tim has a new gk lined up.

I know many have been suggesting n'zog should be sold, but I wonder if it's worth hanging onto him as the new look attacking villa might be more suited to him. I know he has been poor over the last 3 seasons, but that was in a team based around defending from the front and having no possession. We could sell him - but how much would we get ? 1-2 million ? May as well hang on to him

That's true about NZogbia but he's had 3 seasons with us and done nothing spectacular.
On 50k a week, I would prefer to sell him and bring in a replacement, or give Gil a solid chance this season.

A new Goalkeeper is also a good shout. I am a big fan of Guzan, but worry about our back ups if he gets injured or has a bad run of form.

Sherwood bid £8m for Begovic, I'm sure he didn't have Bunn as his second choice, so maybe he will go for another if more funds are avaliable?

I hope the signings continue but even if they don't Sherwood has done excellent business before the season kicks off, agreeing with Jayz they have a week together before the season opener against Bournemouth.
That will be tough, there well up for it and fans expecting a lot this year, I live in Bournemouth, so see the expectation, all be it a bit deluded, they play attacking football and will score goals, it's there defence we need to exploit.
We need to get a winning start so Sherwood finding his starting 11 is key for us.

Agree get rid nzogbia a.s.a.p looking reading about him taking to Twitter venting is the last thing we need in dressing room,we need harmony,happy players and togetherness. I see Bournemouth being the Blackpool of old having good games shocking top teams it won't be easy,but for once in a long time I see we have players capable of technical abilitys,skill,creativity if TS gets I hope what he expects after buying these players we will see nice football for once,there will be highs and lows but it's a work in progress,but I know what us villa fans get like,remember start last season W4 D1 L0 we where all talking about champions league,so let's be patient and enjoy the football I think/hope we will witness this year :))

I'd love to see Gil,Sinclair and grealish playing behind a striker and two hard working CM behind them. Play attacking football and I'd reckon that a lot of games drawn over previous years would suddenly become wins. Let's set up to win games rather than playing for draws/respectable score lines like we did under lambert and MacLeish before him.

I still think after the 3 players today tim will still want another 3 by the end of window. This may depend on players going out as well but I think we will get a Gk cb rm . Don't think he fully trusts guzan as num 1 bacona ain't the answer on the right and if baker goes a player like lescot or of similar quality to go with richards and compete with clark. Could use gil on right though.
