Dean Smith believes Jack Grealish's England snub will make him even more determined to fire Aston Villa past Leicester on Sunday.
The Villa skipper was man of the match in the 3-0 friendly win over Wales last week - his first England start - but was then left on the bench for the Nations League clashes against Belgium and Denmark.
England boss Gareth Southgate's decision to drop Grealish came under fierce scrutiny but Smith, whose side are looking to make it four wins from four after beating Liverpool 7-2, expects the 25-year-old to be even better for the experience.
