O'Neill defends transfer policy

Aston Villa boss Martin O'Neill has brushed off criticism of his transfer policy and reminded supporters of the signings he made last summer. O'Neill has come under fire from some quarters after failing to bring any new players into his squad with the new season less than a fortnight away. O'Neill accepts his squad will need strengthening if Villa are to break into the top four this term, but he has a habit of making his moves late on and has no intention of changing that policy."I'm not remotely interested (in the criticism). Honestly I couldn't care less whether I get unfairly criticised," O'Neill told the Birmingham Mail."What I will say is the business that we did in the last few days of August last year really made our season."You go by the rules and run that length of time. That's absolutely fine, it's not a problem."
