Villa were sixth in the Premier League last season as they missed out on fifth spot and Champions League qualification by finishing below Newcastle United on goal difference.According to FootballTransfers.com, Villa had the third lowest outlay in the top-flight this summer as they spent £57.5m and recouped £47m to end with a £10.5m surplus.”We’re going to have to deal with what we’ve got now,” said Konsa.”I definitely didn’t watch that [transfer deadline day]. It’s been tough, especially for us.”I knew that signing players was going to be difficult for us so I did not look at transfer deadline day.”Around eight o’clock I went on Villa’s social media to see what happened. I saw that we signed three players, who are really good and have Premier League experience.”I think that’s what we needed as well.”Villa have gained just one point – which came from a goalless draw against Newcastle – from their first three games of this season.Konsa is hopeful they can turn their fortunes around after the international break.”We’ve a great squad, I believe in our squad. I believe in our manager,” he said.”Hopefully the boys who have come in can really help us and push us on.”
