​It seems that each and every Aston Villa fan is dealing with life after Paul Lambert in a different way.





6-year-old fan Jude Branson is not wasting any time waiting for his side to appoint a new manager, but rather, he's attempting to pull off one of the greatest coups in Premier League history by asking Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho to leave the Blues and take over his beloved club.





And to bring Diego Costa with him.





His letter reads, "Dear Mr Mourinho, My name is Jude. I am 6 years old and I support Aston Villa. You are my favourite manager. Please could you manage Villa and bring Costa with you? We need help. Thank you Jude Branson.”





Jose Mourinho took time to answer his letter with a signed picture of himself.





Branson's father was ecstatic with Mourinho's gesture, telling the Birmingham Mail, “Jude had a nice surprise today when he came back home from school to find that Jose had sent him a signed picture addressed to himself,” said the young fan's father.





‘It’ll be framed and put on his bedroom wall. It’s good to know that his letter was read and maybe even planted the seed in his head which will lead him to the Villa job one day. This is an excellent way to end a brilliant few days for Jude.’
