Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard expects transfer work to take on even more of his time in the next few weeks.
Gerrard admitted the club are already making plans for next season with respect to incomings and outgoings.
He even joked that he is spending more time in conversation with technical director Johan Lange than his wife!
Gerrard said to reporters: "I speak to Johan more than my wife nowadays.
"That's the way it is, especially when you're coming to a key part of the season.
"I think if you checked my phone bill in December and if you check it in the next couple of months, Johan will be featuring very heavily!"
