Stewart Downing has now joined Aston Villa on a 4 year deal after completing a medical. Although Downing looks to be out of action until October, Martin O’Neill will be delighted having signed another young, talented English player.
The deal is believed to have cost Villa around £12 Million, with Middlesbrough likely to spend most of this sum on strengthening their squad before trying to regain their position in the Premier League.

Not sure i see the quality of Downing to be honest. I have seen him have the odd good game but never understood the hype surrounding him. Best player that Middlesbrough had though but thats not saying much. Martin O’Neill is a great manager though so perhaps i will proven wrong. Time will tell.
