The Scot has been one of Villa's top performers so far this season, scoring three times in seven league appearances.

The 24-year-old scored in the 2-2 draw with Burnley last weekend, as well as during the 3-2 defeat to Arsenal, whilst also playing a key role in Villa's other game in September, the 0-0 draw with West Ham.

He joins seven other players in the running for the award.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Kevin De Bruyne, Riyad Mahrez, Heung-Min Son, Ricardo Pereira and Callum Wilson are all nominated alongside the midfielder.
