Cost: £5.4m

Next game-week: Sheffield United + Chelsea

When coming to Aston Villa, the no-brainer for all managers is Jack Grealish, followed by Anwar El Ghazi but John McGinn was one of the most crucial layers for the Clarets until his ankle injury forced him out.

The Scottish International is probably a bit rusty since he hasn’t touched a ball even once in 2020, but he was set to return in march but pandemic halted his return, therefore, there is no guarantee about his role.

Dean Smith’s struggles to mould a convincing combination of his other central midfielders during McGinn’s absence would also arguably hasten the need for the Scotland international’s return.

McGinn’s early season of brief scoring threat caught the eye when he managed to ba 3 goals in the first 7 game-weeks. So, if he plays this week, he could be a good gamble.
