The 1995-96 campaign delivered a triumphant return to form and silverware for Aston Villa, as The Villans surged to a superb 4th-place finish in the Premier League and won the League Cup. Leading the charge was the prolific Dwight Yorke, whose 17 league goals proved decisive in a campaign built on Brian Little's dramatic squad overhaul and the crucial signing of Gareth Southgate. It was a standout year that secured a coveted UEFA Cup spot and was crowned with a brilliant 3-0 Wembley final victory over Leeds United, featuring memorable goals from Savo Milošević, Ian Taylor, and Yorke, which remains a defining chapter in the club’s modern history.
