Aston Villa's Ashley Westwood has revealed that he wants to be as successful as David Platt at the club.
The 22-year-old followed in Platt's footsteps when he signed for Villa from Crewe.
Westwood told The Express: "I'll be happy if I can get near the level David reached.
"We had a picture of his goal at the Crewe training ground. That's the kind of player we were told to look up to and emulate. He has always been a class act."
Westwood added that Swansea also showed interest in signing him.
The teams meet at Villa Park this afternoon.
