Currently trending on Twitter.

According to the RT's that I've read, it looks like a lot of people from Twitter are happy with the move.

[rfr3sh]

I think he will bring some consistent goal scoring to our team
we are also in the hunt for Christopher samba from blackburn

[RedDevil11]

He'll improve the squad, but for £24M ???....not sure about that.
lol....Pienaar snubs Chelsea for the Spurs....the Spurs midfield is stacked.

[rfr3sh]

they don't even have room for him....doesn't seem like it anyways
villa also got jean makoun

[Soon2BRich]

lol with all due respect mate there is no way he is worth 18 - 24 milion.

[rfr3sh]

he scored 25 goals for sunderland last year...
we have trouble scoring and I think it is clear to compete in this league u must over pay for players
look at man city

[JOHON8]

They had to make that buy. Look at teams like Birmingham bringing in players who were once with teams like Barcelona, Tottenham, etc... the EPL is getting tougher every season and Villa want to be a top team.

[The Special One]

watch out for Aston Villa to get some hard-earned points in their next few games... pretty good odds now as they are in relegation spot...

[althelegend]

Probably paid more than twice his value - but are hoping, of course, that he keeps them in the premier league. If he does they will consider it's money well spent.

Transfer prices have been inflated for nearly 5 years now

You have to overpay for any sort of proven talent.
