The 23-year-old had struggled to reach the levels he displayed on a consistent basis last season during the early weeks of this campaign but appears to have turned a corner after opening his account for England earlier this month, before firing in a stunning equaliser against Tottenham.

Villa boss Unai Emery faced calls from fans to drop Rogers following his slow start - a slump that reached a low point when home supporters sarcastically cheered as he completed a pass late on against Bologna in the club's first Europa League game.
