Aston Villa captain John McGinn has heaped praise on Liverpool new boy Dominik Szoboszlai.

Arriving from RB Leipzig in the summer for a mega £60 million fee as part of their revamped midfield.

Szoboszlai has already shown why the club paid so much money for him, scoring a beautiful goal in a 3-0 win over Villa over the weekend.

"The corner comes from us – we allow them to get the ball in the box and it's a terrific strike from (Dominik) Szoboszlai," McGinn told Villa's club website.

"They've got players that can hurt you and have the quality to score goals like that. If you allow a team like Liverpool that head start it becomes a difficult afternoon.

"We had chances for people like me to get back into the game, but we didn't take them. Liverpool proved that they'll be a real force this season."
