Premier League 2015-16 club by club review: (ASTON VILLA)

Last season: 17th

Manager Tim Sherwood had a tricky start to life at Aston Villa but he kept his side in the Premier League and also reached the FA Cup final, even though they were thrashed by Arsenal.

Three of his big players from last season, Tom Cleverley, captain Fabian Delph and the big danger Christian Benteke have all gone, leaving Sherwood with rebuilding to do.

Sherwood has spent a lot of money in the transfer window. He has bought strikers Jordan Ayew and Rudy Gestede, who will provide a big physical presence.

The big question is can Villa cope without Benteke's goals?
