Alan Shearer says Aston Villa star Jack Grealish was simply too good for Norwich City

Aston Villa grabbed their second Premier League victory of the season in style on Saturday, handing Norwich City a 5-1 thrashing at Carrow Road. Wesley got a brace, missed a penalty, while Jack Grealish, Conor Hourihane and Douglas Luiz also got on the score sheet for the visitors. The Villa skipper finally opened his goal-scoring account for the league season, and he was unplayable from start to finish. Grealish impressed Premier League legend Alan Shearer, making his official Team of the Week alongside Wesley.

The former Newcastle United striker has explained why the Villa star made his team:

“Simply too good for Daniel Farke’s Canaries from start to finish,” Shearer raved about Grealish.
