Aston Villa will be hoping to secure their place back in the big time this season after a disappointing return to England's second-tier last term.

Steve Bruce is beginning to improve the club's fortunes, though, as they currently occupy a place in the top six and look likely to give themselves a chance of promotion come May.

On Football Manager 2018, Villa are a good project to take on. They have money, history and the players to make you one of the favourites from the very beginning. They also have a number of good young players coming through the youth setup if you're the kind of manager who likes to develop youngsters in to world beaters.

There are four at Villa Park who deserve particular attention when managing Villa on the game, so read on to learn more about the four Aston Villa wonderkids on FM18...
