Villa boss ready to move in January transfer market

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is preparing to make moves in the January transfer window after talks with the club's owners. "I've spoken to Tom Fox about January and whether we need to do something. It depends on personnel and injuries and ultimately the decision will come from the chairman," Lambert said.

"He's never once said: 'you can't do x, y and z'. You put it to him and if he thinks it's too dear he says no. If he thinks it's fine then fine. If the chairman thinks it's right he tells me I can, if not he tells me no. That's how it should be.

"Randy's been great, really supportive. He came last week and I'm pretty sure he will get over to more games. I don't get any indication he will take the club off the market. I still think if someone comes in and makes an offer to make Aston Villa stronger and it is right for the chairman it will happen."
