Main article: History of Aston Villa F.C. (1961–present)

Dean Saunders (9 goals) Dalian Atkinson Dean Saunders (15 each) (7 May 1994, Premier League) (24 Nov 1993, Premier League) The 1993–94 English football season was Aston Villa's 2nd season in the Premier League and 7th season in Europe. It was Aston Villa's 119th professional season, their 83rd season in the top flight and their 6th consecutive season in the top tier of English football. The Kit Supplier was Asics and the shirt sponsors were Müller.

Aston Villa were never anywhere near the title race that they had looked likely to win for much of the previous season, as they finished 10th in the table a year after coming second. The slump was largely due to a shortage of goals. But their compensation for this shortcoming was victory in the League Cup final against Manchester United - a 3–1 scoreline ending the opposition's hope of becoming the first English team to win all three major domestic trophies in the same season.

Villa were drawn against Birmingham City in the League Cup second round. The Second City derby would be the only one in a 14-year period from the 1988–89 season, when Viila won all three matches 13–0 in aggregate, until 2002–03 season

There were debuts for Andy Townsend (134), Graham Fenton (30) and Guy Whittingham (25).

Players

The likes of Dean Saunders and Paul McGrath were as consistent and reliable as ever, though a few older players such as Garry Parker, Kevin Richardson and Shaun Teale were starting to look past their best.

The pre-season signing of 30-year-old midfielder Andy Townsend from Chelsea was one of the best pieces of business done so far by manager Ron Atkinson, whereas the capture of Guy Whittingham from Portsmouth proved to be a disappointment - the striker never came anywhere near matching the tally of 47 goals he had scored done for the south coast club a season earlier, and he was loaned out to Wolverhampton to gain more first-team chances. Gordon Cowans rejoined the club for his third spell but left the club again after just a few months.

Villa fans were given something to look forward to with the emergence of promising young players like Ugo Ehiogu, Graham Fenton and Mark Bosnich.
