Leeds United midfielder Kalvin Phillips has raved about Aston Villa star Jack Grealish on talkSPORT.

Phillips is playing with Villa attacking midfielder Grealish for the England national team at the ongoing Euro 2020 finals.

The 25-year-old has spoken highly of the Villa star, and has said that his quality is “scary”.

What a compliment!

Phillips is one of the best midfielders in the Premier League, and his compliment to Grealish is special indeed.

Calling the 25-year-old a “dream mate” is something big.

“Scary” – that is some compliment as well.

It shows just how highly Grealish is rated among his teammates and opposition players.

Grealish was very good for England against the Czech Republic in their final Euro 2020 group game.

Perhaps England head coach Gareth Southgate will include the Villa star in the starting lineup against Germany in the Round of 16.

Grealish has the ‘X factor’ that many players in the England squad do not.

The attacker is brilliant when he starts on the left and then cuts inside.

Germany are a strong team, and England could do with someone like Grealish who is creative and has vision.
