Barcelona superstar Lionel Messi is a big fan of Aston Villa winger Ashley Young.
Messi watched on cable TV as Young played brilliantly in Aston Villa's 3-0 win over West Ham.
The Barca ace wrote on his official Twitter page: "The Villa vs. West Ham match is really exciting - Ashley Young is having a blinder."
Martin O'Neill, who once claimed the flying Villa winger was in the same class as mercurial Messi, quit as Villa boss earlier this week.
