Aston Villa midfielder Ashley Westwood has claimed that teammate Jack Grealish has "frightening" talent.
The 19-year-old has become a first-team regular under Tim Sherwood and has put in several quality displays in recent weeks in the heart of Villa's midfield, including in their 1-0 win over Liverpool in the semi-final of the FA Cup.
Westwood believes that Grealish will only improve as he becomes accustomed to life in the Premier League because of his talent and work ethic.
He told the club's official website: "Jack's talent is frightening. Just look at the way he picks the ball up and runs with it - he glides across the turf and goes past people for fun.
"If he adds a couple of goals to his game - which I am sure he will do - he can be whatever he wants to be in the game of football. Everything he does is effortless. He works harder than anyone too - he's often the last off the training pitch with Fabian - but his ability is natural.
"The crazy thing is he's only at the start of his football journey. He's proving himself as an incredibly valuable member of the first team but he will only get better. This is the beginning for him."
Villa play West Ham United later today in their Premier League clash.
