  "account": "Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho has kicked off his new season with impressive form in two friendlies for his new club, Aston Villa. The long international break has given the player time to make an impression while others were away representing their countries. Garnacho scored the only goal in Villa's 1-0 victory over Southampton and then again in their 3-1 win against Sevilla.
