Boss Unai Emery had seemed more frayed this month, the stress of the window and Aston Villa's financial restrictions appeared to be wearing on him. It may have been a relief, then, that Villa's window ended quietly with a few young loans out- Samuel Iling Jr leaving on loan for Pisa after his spell at West Bromwich Albion was cut short and Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba replacing him at The Hawthorns for the second half of the season. Villa's dealings were essentially done and signing Tammy Abraham for £18.25m should represent good business given they get a 28-year-old England international returning with excellent experience picked up at Roma, AC Milan and Besiktas.
