Micah Richards is excited to be launching his Aston Villa career.
Richards has been impressed with the impact of Tim Sherwood at Villa Park and can't wait to work under the claret and blues chief.
"The new manager has come in and it is like a new lease of life and when I spoke to him there was only really one place I wanted to come," said Richards.
"He mentioned what a massive club it was and what he is trying to do here.
"Since he has come in, the impact he has had has been amazing really.
"We got to the final of the FA Cup and he also got us out of trouble in the Premier League.
"Since he has come in the team has been playing well and I'm just glad to be part of it now."
