Not sure if a loan to Villa is advisable. Villa have Eric Lichaj at RB, who looked ok against Bale. If Walker sits on bench for Villa, he may as well sit on bench for Spurs. Plus Villa also have Beye. Also with Albrighton / Downing ahead of him, I guess he would do less bombing up the pitch than he is becoming known for.
