1993-94 Season Review
Ron Atkinson's third season as Villa boss saw Villa lose just twice in the league in the first 22 games of the season as another title tilt looked on the cards.
Villa were 3rd in the Premier League coming into November but by year end they had fallen back to 10th having lost 5 of the 8 league games they had played however Villa had reached the League Cup quarter final with the season very much alive.
The turn of the year saw Villa return to the form of the start of the season winning 6 of the 7 games they played and rose to 6th in the table ahead of a League Cup semi and the run to the end of the season.
Villa triumphed in a thrilling League Cup final second leg under the lights at Villa Park but could only rise to 5th in the league before a terrible run of form either side of their 4th League Cup trophy win saw them fall back to 10th in the Premier League just a season after they finished as runners up.
Villa's form in the final 12 league games of the season made grim reading, 2 wins and 8 losses and a second successive top 5 finish was thrown away.
Undoubtedly there was consolation for Atkinson's side in winning silverware with a fabulous League Cup win over Champions Manchester United but for the first time there were concerns about the staying power of the team and the overall age of the squad which some felt may have contributed to Villa's poor finishes to the last two seasons.

Ron Atkinson's third season as Villa boss saw a 3rd successive top 10 finish in the Premier League following the previous season's runners up spot and their fourth League Cup trophy win.
Atkinson’s Villa had achieved a win rate of 45%, losing 30% of their 159 League and Cup matches under his leadership.
