Jamie Redknapp hails Fabian Delph, Jack Grealish performances

Jamie Redknapp hails the displays of midfielders Fabian Delph and Jack Grealish in Aston Villa's FA Cup semi-final victory over Liverpool.

Jamie Redknapp has praised the performances of Fabian Delph and Jack Grealish in Aston Villa's 2-1 victory over Liverpool in semi-finals of the FA Cup.

Delph created his side's first goal for Christian Benteke to fire the Villans level, and the England international went one better in the second as he scored the decisive goal with a neat finish to send his team to the final.

Grealish also put in an accomplished display at Wembley as he created Delph's strike, and won the battle in the middle of the park against Steven Gerrard and Jordan Henderson.

Redknapp wrote in the Daily Mail: "Aston Villa deserved their victory at Wembley on Sunday and there were two players at the heart of it all. Jack Grealish was fantastic but Fabian Delph was the best player on the pitch.

"I said his battle with Jordan Henderson would be key to the game. There's no doubt who won that one. Delph was different class. He put in an all-action display and ran the game. He looked like the player we all felt he could become when he emerged at Leeds. He was outstanding.

"As for Grealish, for a young man to play like that on his first visit to Wembley was magnificent."

Villa will play Arsenal in the final at Wembley on May 30.
