Paul Lambert insists that Aston Villa still attract experienced players despite their struggles in the Premier League this season.

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert believes that he can sign top players in January despite his side's current struggles.

The Villans are currently just a point above the relegation zone in the Premier League.

"No, I don't think that will the case [not being able to attract experienced players]," he told reporters. "I don't because I think it is not just Aston Villa that are in a fight.

"There are a right few others and in the second half of the season, as [Wigan Athletic manager] Roberto Martinez said, you have to have patience and don't panic.

"That is important. It is not just Aston Villa in a fight. Can I sell the club and its young players to an experienced player? I don't see that is a problem. The football club on its own will attract that as well."

Villa are away at Swansea City on Tuesday.
