Derby County defender Curtis Davies seems to rate Aston Villa star Jack Grealish highly.
Grealish, who can also operate as a winger, is one of the best players in the Villa team and is one of the best young players in the Championship.
The 23-year-old is on the sidelines at the moment with a shin injury, and it remains to be seen when he is back to full fitness and is available to turn out for Dean Smith’s side.
Former Villa defender Davies has spoken highly of Grealish, and has said that he is difficult to get close to.
Davies said about Grealish on Sky Sports Main Event last Friday evening (7:14pm, February 8, 2019): “You can’t get close to him really because, when he plays in that number 10 role, as a centre-half, unless you literally get your holding midfielder to stand on him the whole gam,e you can’t get close to him.”
Important player
Grealish is the creator-in-chief in the Villa team, and the Villans have missed the youngster in recent games.
The Villa Park faithful will hope that the 23-year-old is back in action soon, as the Villans need him in their quest to finish in the top six of the Championship this season.
Smith’s team are 10th in the Championship table at the moment with 44 points from 31 matches, six points behind sixth-placed Bristol City.
Villa are very much in the race for the Championship playoffs this season, and they need Grealish back as soon as possible.
