Aston Villa boss impressed with new signing
Alex McLeish has been impressed with Charles N’Zogbia’s performances and admits he is excited about what the winger will bring to Aston Villa in the future.
N’Zogbia is gradually setting in to life at Villa Park since his summer move from Wigan and McLeish feels he is improving with every game and was particularly impressed with his performance in Saturday’s goalless draw with local rivals Wolves.
Despite the game finishing as stalemate, McLeish believes the French star showed enough positive signs to become a key player for Villa this season.
“Charles is dangerous. He had a couple of shots. He pulled one over the bar and one past the post,” McLeish told the club’s official website.
“He looks exciting at times. I’m sure if I look at that game again, I’ll pick out a lot of good things about Charles.
“I felt there was a buzz from the crowd whenever he got on the ball.
“There were a couple of great things he did to get goal-side of the Wolves defenders and the crowd reacted to that.
“I thought he did really well. It was just the final action, which for me was a couple of shots, but other than that I thought he was pretty exciting.
“He was a lot better than in the midweek cup tie against Hereford.”
