Aston Villa boss Steven Gerrard is delighted counting on John McGinn this season.
Gerrard admits the Scot has surprised him since his arrival.
"There are not many better people than John McGinn," said the manager.
"I have been in football for a very, very long time and he is a character that is contagious, which is fantastic for the player group, both on and off the field.
"He is very important for me, for the coaching staff, for his teammates and for the club.
"The club has been good for John - and he has paid back with consistently strong performances."
