Aston Villa winger Leon Bailey hailed Ollie Watkins as a top class centr forward.

The English striker was on his game during a 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, snatching a point for his team.

Watkins did miss their 2-1 win over Legia Warsaw in the Europa Conference League, but was back and at his best this weekend.

"Ollie Watkins is a top striker and he did what top strikers do, he stepped up," Bailey said after full-time.

"The Premier League is difficult and the challenge is more away from home. We stuck together as a team. My goal was normal for a winger.

"It was a fun game to play in but a very difficult one. We never gave up and fought to the end and are grateful for a point."
