Steve Bruce's Aston Villa are finally getting into their stride in recent weeks, and are looking like mounting a genuine challenge for the top six in the Championship.

The Villans have won their last four league games and are looking like the team to beat at present, as we head into the international break.

Bruce has been utilising a 4-4-2 system of late and it seems to be paying dividends, with Keinan Davis and Jonathan Kodjia leading the line for the Midlands outfit.

Bruce has an array of talent at his disposal and has some of the best options to call upon in the whole of the Championship, and there is one player who could be given more of a chance this season.

19-year-old Callum O'Hare is the latest product of Aston Villa's academy who is making a name for himself, and he's on the periphery of the first-team at present.

The attacking midfielder has played 285 minutes for Aston Villa this season, mainly in the Carabao Cup, and is someone who many at Villa feel has a big future at the club.

O'Hare's most impressive attribute is his versatility.

Able to operate as a number 10, central midfielder or striker, O'Hare has many strings to his bow and that's what makes him such an attractive option for Bruce to utilise going forward.

But does the 19-year-old deserve to start matches? There is a case for it.

He has been impressive in every match he has played for the Villa first-team, and surely the more minutes he amasses as a first-team player, the quicker he'll develop and progress as a footballer.

Villa fans.... Does O'Hare deserve a chance in the first-team? Let us know your thoughts below!
