Warnock says McGinn ‘was excellent’ against Swansea

Stephen Warnock says Aston Villa midfielder John McGinn “was excellent” against Swansea City and was key to Dean Smith’s side picking up all three points over the weekend. Villa ended a four-game winless streak on Saturday afternoon and delivered an impressive performance over the 90 minutes to nullify Swansea’s play and earn a clean sheet.

McGinn, who joined Villa from Hibernian in August, has shone ever since his arrival from the Scottish Premiership. The 24-year-old, who has represented Scotland on 13 occasions, has high levels of industry and is composed in possession.
