Downing is £10m bargain - O'Neill
Downing became Villa's first signing of the summer when he joined from Middlesbrough last week and O'Neill could not be happier to have landed the England international.
Villa paid Boro an initial £10million, with a further £2million due dependent on appearances, but O'Neill believes the 24-year-old will prove to be a bargain.
He told the Sunday Mirror: "£10m is a bargain. It's great value and he's a superb acquisition. He's got pace, although he admits he could add a few more goals to his game. I'm delighted to have him.
"He's had a nasty injury and won't be available for a considerable time, but he'll be sensational when he is."
Villa have also been linked with Leeds youngster Fabian Delph but O'Neill refused to comment on any of his targets.
