Aston Villa manager Steve Bruce insists that John Terry will only get better after being in control of central defence during win over Barnsley

Keinan Davis, a 19-year-old striker, scored his first league goal after helping to set up two in the first half for Albert Adomah.

Meanwhile, John Terry - nearly twice his age at 36 - was in total control at the heart of Villa's defence as they kept their third clean sheet in a row.
