London - Tim Sherwood on Monday said his decision to take the job as manager of struggling English Premier League side Aston Villa was a "no-brainer".
The 46-year-old was unveiled at Villa Park on Monday after signing a deal until 2018 to replace the sacked Paul Lambert.
He takes over a side who languish in the relegation zone in the league, although his half-time team-talk helped inspire Villa to a 2-1 win against Leicester City on Sunday that took them into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.
