The former Rangers boss took over at Villa Park last month from Dean Smith, and went on to win both of his games in charge in November.

Those results included a 2-0 win at home to Brighton, halting Villa's five-game losing streak - before securing a 2-1 away victory over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

The Villa boss is up against two heavyweights in the running for the award, with Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp the other nominees.

Fans can vote for their pick here up until Monday December 6, with the winner revealed next week.
