As they prepare themselves to face Legia Warszawa on Thursday evening, Aston Villa know they can count on Youri Tielemans.
That wasn’t the case earlier on in the campaign, when the midfielder, who had arrived on a free from Leicester, was struggling to convince Unai Emery to use him, clearly frustrating the player in the process.
All has now changed, however, with RTBF covering the Belgium star, pointing out that the Aston Villa star has ‘found his smile again’.
This comes at a time when the whole of the Villa Park club are on a high, as they currently sit fourth in the Premier League, are well on course to qualify from the Conference League group and have the entire FA Cup to play for.
Tielemans is playing more despite a ‘false start’ to his season, with him spending more time on the bench than off it for a period of time, but that ‘mental block’ is now slowly being broken, as the Aston Villa signing finds his feet at his new club.
This was also on display during the international break, where the local media were delighted to once again see the player they once knew.
