    When to start worrying..

    About transfers?

    Other clubs around us are making moves.. Villa signing Onana and now linked with Felix..

    Man U signing players..

    I know it's said to trust the process but surely there's a time when we need to think what's happening?

    Are they waiting for Eddie and England or what?

    Villa have a lot of games against tougher opposition than last season.

    No point in worrying unless you think the club aren’t working hard on transfers. They clearly are otherwise why sign Mitchell?
    I want transfers too but after years of signing dross, I’ll be pleased to sign a couple of quality players with good attitudes.

    Not yet, imo, Tut.

    Frustrated but not with the club.

    Nowt to worry about. Five and a half weeks to go. Look at the surprise we got when they signed Isak. No one expected it and it came out of the blue. How much did anyone know about the lad before he came here.

    The club must have known about him inside out to spend that sort of money and they don't advertise when they are in for players.

    They just go and get them in and the unveil them.

    Be patient, trust the club and those doing the job behind the scenes. The best is yet to come.

    Also - we've only just finished 2 major comps, so I'd think majority of players we're looking at will be on holiday now for a couple of weeks.

    So, off subject slightly but been reading the comments made by Eddie regarding his position and authority etc. is this Mitchell, Eddie’s boss then? I hope not, personally, just got a funny feeling about him,hope I’m wrong.

    Personally I don't mind if Eddie goes.. most managers now don't have full control and I'm ok with that.. I do feel Eddie wont be here long term anyway

    If the squad stays fit and in good shape then Eddie needs a trophy or top 4. I think pressure will mount towards the end of the season if not delivered and players may start to get itchy feet.

    I have no doubt it will happen, possibly even getting both.

    He’s Director of Football and Eddie is the manager.
    Mitchell must be Eddie’s boss and Eales is Mitchell’s boss. If Mitchell’s good at his job (everything suggests he is) then he’ll listen carefully to Howe, but the final decision rests with the DOF on football matters, I imagine.
