Jack Grealish makes brilliant Tammy Abraham demand after Aston Villa hero makes Roma history

Aston Villa fans have been showering Tammy Abraham with praise after his historic night for AS Roma at the weekend.

Abraham scored the fastest goal in Derby della Capitale history when he netted after only 56 seconds in Roma's Serie A clash with Lazio on Sunday. He netted twice in a 3-0 win for Jose Mourinho's side, his 14th and 15th goals of the season after a £34million move to the Italian capital from Chelsea in the summer.
