Reo Coker happy with Villa

Aston Villa midfielder Nigel Reo Coker is delighted with the way that that the Villains have improved over the last season. Aston Villa pushed all the way for European places to the end of the season and Martin O'Neill's side impressed throughout.

"For any team not in the top four, it's a building process," he said. "You're not going to get the guaranteed quick fix to get into the top four.

"The top four teams have been doing it for years, they have been spending serious money for years on wages and transfer fees.

"And it takes time. Any club has to eventually build up to that process."
