Aston Villa captain John McGinn has saluted Philippe Coutinho as being a role model for everyone in the squad.

Coutinho scored his first goal of the season against Arsenal in a 4-2 defeat at the weekend.

While the Brazilian is still working his way towards his best form, McGinn believes he is a hugely positive influence in the dressing room.

“All the young players at the club should take everything from Phil," he said.

“He's so humble, works hard, doesn't complain and just gets on with trying to get back in the team.

“It's been the same for me. I've been out of the team so just get your head down, work hard and when you get your opportunity you take it."
