Aston Villa youngster Ben Chrisene is enjoying his loan spell with Kilmarnock.
The 18-year-old left-back says Villa boss Steven Gerrard sent him to Kille to gain first-team experience, and he made an impressive debut in the win over Motherwell on Saturday.
Chrisene said: "I am very grateful for this opportunity to play in the Premiership.
"The gaffer at Villa and his coaching staff told me all about it and he said to me I needed a bit more men's football.
"I was playing at the academy and mixing with the first team but I think coming here solidifies men's football and the Scottish league is about that.
"It is a tough league to come to and he wants me to play as many games as I can and hopefully that's what I do. It is not just the physical side, it is the mental game as well.
"You are playing under pressure, you need to win. At the academy football you get a bit of leeway.
"There is a lot more on the line when you are playing men's football, as opposed to academy football.
"I was told straight away when I came in that it means a lot to get the win and three points every week so it is good.
"I will get used to it very quickly I think. It is all good experience for me.
"It is for my own development but mainly it is about getting results for Kilmarnock."
