Tom Cleverley, welcome to the best club in the world, work hard, play well and we'll love you.
I imagine if wages were the stumbling block, as was mentioned yesterday, then perhaps we've said come on loan and we'll pay your current wage in exchange for first team football, and of you do well, we'll make you an offer in January for wages we think are fair (by which time it might not be randy's problem). Sounds like win win for villa; he does well, we do well, he does poorly, we're no worse off (other than 1.5m ish in wages).
This was a strange deal, but I stand by my original thoughts that this can only be good for the team.
