Tottenham midfielder Jermaine Jenas is looking forward to playing for Aston Villa's fans.

Jenas signed for Villa on-loan this week.

He told Villa's website: "It's been frustrating for me being in and out, in and out and it's almost impossible to generate any form.

"Obviously, I've still got to get into this team. It's a very good side with some very good players.

"That's one of the reasons why I was chomping at the bit to get up here. I looked at what they had within the squad, how I would fit into that and what we could achieve and it excited me, so I can't wait.

"I've got to work hard in training to try and get a starting place within this team and then I can build up my form and produce the kind of performances I know I can produce.

"I'm still a young 28, I've still got plenty of energy and plenty more to come.

"I'm so delighted to be joining Villa. I'm thrilled to be here. It's a fantastic stadium and a fantastic pitch.

"The fans, every time I've played here, the atmosphere they generate really does help the home team."
