McGinn gets ASENS there's more to come

JOHN McGinn believes the best of Marco Asensio is still to come, despite the Paris Saint-Germain loanee scoring seven goals in his first five games for Villa.

Only PSG's Ousmane Dembele (eight) has scored more in Europe's big five leagues across all competitions than Asensio since his debut under Unai Emery last month.

He has bagged braces in each of his last three home appearances, including against Club Brugge in the Champions League last Wednesday when he came off the bench to score either side of Ian Maatsen’s first goal for the club.

“He can’t miss at the minute, it's brilliant,” said skipper McGinn. “He just seems to be in the right position. In another couple of games he was close to bagging some more. When we see him in full flow, I'm sure it will be a joy to have him in the team.
