Former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor believes his old side have an 'all-round midfielder' in Jacob Ramsey after his brilliant display in Tuesday's 2-0 win at Norwich. 

The 20-year-old broke the deadlock in spectacular fashion for Steven Gerrard's side with a surging solo run to slice right through Norwich's midfield and defence. 

Agbonlahor has followed Ramsey's progress at Villa Park and feels he has become 'brave' since breaking through last season.

'What I like about him is that he is looking to drive toward goal, not go out to the wing and get a cross in,' Agbonlahor told BT Sport.

'He wants to score goals and maybe last season he wouldn't have taken the shot on there, but he's been brave, taken on the shot with his weaker foot and he's got his reward.'
