I mean great signing, we finally have someone tall upfront to hold the ball up well, but probably should have put a bit more effort into getting a CB

Abraham was initially reluctant to play in the Championship having played last season for Swansea City in the Premier League on loan.
He was ready to fight for his place in the star-studded Chelsea side. However, after being left out of Chelsea’s opening three matches, he has decided to move to Villa in order to get regular game time.
The 20-year-old is a natural goalscorer and he enjoyed a prolific campaign in the Championship for Bristol City where he netted 26 goals in all competitions.
