Aston Villa defender Matty Cash has raved about Leeds United while talking to AVFC TV.
Villa were beaten 3-0 by Leeds last Friday, as their unbeaten start to the season came crashing to a halt.
Leeds were relentless at Villa Park, as their attacking play left Villa powerless to resist.
Cash was one of the few claret and blues players who actually came out of the game with any credit.
But the £16 million right-back (BBC Sport) admits it was a struggle playing against Leeds, as they were so brilliant.
“It was a tough game. Leeds are a really good side,” he said.
“They like to move the ball really quickly and take players out of the spaces. I played against them in the Championship and it was really tough for us.”
Cash’s words just add to the compliments that Leeds have been racking up since their promotion to the top flight.
The Whites have made a highly encouraging start to life back in the Premier League, and currently sit in sixth place in the table, after six games have been played.
Leeds are in action again on Monday evening, when they take on Leicester City at Elland Road.
