Aston Villa boss Dean Smith is confident Wesley Moraes will come good.

Wesley has come in for stick following the claret and blues' back-to-back defeats to Tottenham Hotspur and Bournemouth.

"Wesley did OK," Smith said after defeat to the Cherries. He had a couple of chances, the 'keeper's made a save, one's got deflected.

"He was a presence up front and ran down the sides as well at the end of the first half and again in the second.

"He's starting to get up to speed with the Premier League and it's going to take time for the few of them. I've been pleased with his performances so far and he just needs a goal now."
