Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is determined not to lose star pair Fabian Delph and Ron Vlaar.
Both players are in the final year of their current deals.
Yet Lambert is adamant no one is going without the green light from him and has issued a hands-off warning to potential suitors.
He said: "I don't think anyone will go without me saying so. Put it that way.
"I think the lads are happy here and want to get going again. Things will happen with those lads in the next little bit.
"It will take course through the season."
