Guzan, who was only his second competitive appearance in a Villa shirt, is currently lining fellow American Brad Friedel.

O'Neill has signed America's Chivas USA at the second attempt, for a total of around £ 2 m in August, as his original move collapsed in January because he failed to obtain a work permit.

I never had any doubts about Brad from the moment he came over and has not received his work permit for the first time, "said O'Neill." He has a wonderful temperament.
