Jozef Vengloš | 🇨🇿 | 1990-1991
Manager #18 for Aston Villa, Jozef Vengloš.
When Doug Ellis appointed Jozef Vengloš in July 1990 to replace the departed Graham Taylor he became the first manager from outside Britain or Ireland to take charge of a top-flight English team.
Taylor was a tough task to follow and despite his glowing references Vengloš’ sole season in charge of Villa looks at first glance a difficult one. A 17th placed finish, saved from relegation by a late season win having been runners up in the previous campaign; an ageing and misfiring squad without the motivating managerial hand of Taylor; and the star player, David Platt, rapidly making for the exit door; Vengloš had more than his fair share of challenges.
A spiteful local press campaign hardly helped - and set in motion a distinct distrust of the journalistic intentions of the local rag that remains today - but the reality was that Vengloš’ Villa reign began very competently indeed.
Vengloš’ first 16 games brought 9 wins, 4 draws and just 3 losses.
The wins included the famous European night when Villa vanquished Inter Milan at Villa Park courtesy of goals from Kent Nielsen and David Platt.
A fortnight later and Villa’s season and Vengloš’ regime was shattered. An extremely suspect refereeing performance at the San Siro saw Inter clinch exactly the number of goals needed to overturn Villa’s lead and thereafter Vengloš and his team seemed lost, unable to recover from the set back.
The final 33 games of the season brought 7 wins, 11 draws and 15 losses.
Yet Vengloš had joined the club with a strong reputation having been assistant coach when Czechoslovakia won the European Championship in 1976 and had two spells as manager, taking them to third place at the 1980 European Championship and the quarter-finals at the 1990 World Cup.
Reflecting on his time with Villa Vengloš recalled “For me it was a great honour.” A typically respectful response from a decent man not given the tools to do his job. Vengloš sole signing for the first team was Gary Penrice for a scarcely believable £1,000,000, whilst Ivo Staš’ arrival and non-appearance became stuff of legend.
Vengloš continued “For me it was a great honour and I tried to do my best at Villa. It was an excellent experience getting to know the inside atmosphere of English football. Those situations have helped me with work in other countries. When I came over there, for foreign people it was more difficult than now, but lots of managers have come over and done well.”
Introduced by Ellis in his typically pompous and patronising style saying “Do you know who this is?” and a local press delighting firstly in their childish “Dr Who?” only then to up the ante to “Dr No” for Vengloš’ alleged reluctance to enter the transfer market. Vengloš days were numbered before they had even begun. A few years later a guy called Arsene Wenger suffered similar indignities from a brazenly xenophobic press corps which soon infected the fan base.
That no-one connected the dots in the transfer market which blatantly signposted Ellis’ reluctant, miserly and often belated spending windily served to reinforce the lack of support he could expect.
Thankfully though there were some within the playing staff and beyond who recognised then, and some subsequently, the validity of the ideas Vengloš was bringing to English football and which would be widely celebrated once Wenger won his first title.
Dwight Yorke recalled “The rhings he did at Villa, other clubs were doing seven or eight years later.”
Vengloš revealed “I told them after the game not to stay in the dressing room. The boys who played have to run around and do their stretches and those who didn’t will have a normal training session.
“They weren’t used to that and it probably felt a little bit strange in the beginning but after a while the players knew why they were doing it and it worked very well.”
The footballing culture of the time in England was another culture shock - beer, snacks and laughter after a loss, sometimes minutes after the final whistle wasn’t something Vengloš had bargained for.
Equally a powerful intellect and gift for languages was put to the greatest strain as the dressing room refused to budge an inch to help the new boss
“I had a bit of a problem with my English which was not really in the top level as it probably should have been.I know of course that English is the world No.1 language and I tried my best, I spoke Russian, Portuguese and can communicate in Spanish and so on.
“But a few things those days were a bit different to what we had been doing in central Europe. The methodology of training, the analysing of nutrition and the recuperation, regeneration and physiological approach to the game.“
The denouement of Vengloš doomed reign came full circle as the local rag plastered the intentionally spiteful “For God Sake Go, Jo” headline across its pages.
He did, but it wasn’t him who needed to repair his reputation.
Jozef Vengloš passed away on 26 January 2021 aged 84.

On This Day
Villa lose in a game they dominate as the City 'keeper is forced to make multiple saves to deny Tony Daley, Gordon Cowans, David Platt and Kevin Gage before the home side are awarded a soft penalty by referee John Watson for which replays confirmed what the naked eye saw in real time - that no contact had been made.
Watson doubled down on the controversy by refusing Villa a spot kick for a clear shove on David Platt with City hitting a second on the break as Villa continued to take the game to them.
Unlucky thought the defeat was Villa make it one point from nine in the first division as they fall to 18th in the table under Jozef Vengloš.
Paul McGrath collects his first booking in a Villa shirt on his 50th appearance to make it W24 D10 L16, 1 Goals, 3 Assists and 11 Booking so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Villa win in what is described as "arguably the best performance an English club side has ever produced in Europe." as the appointment of Jozef Vengloš continues to pay dividends.
Villa face Inter Milan for the first time in competitive football, Inter become the 131st team that the Villa first team has played in League or Cup football, Villa’s 17th continental European opponents and their second from Italy following their meeting with Juventus in their 1982-83 European Cup campaign.
Villa put on one of the great Villa Park European nights - a setting for which these games were seemingly made. A stunning victory over Italian giants Inter Milan in the 1st leg left Villa’s prospects for progression looking very promising.
Villa were now unbeaten in the last five and had now lost just once in eleven games under Jozef Vengloš winning eight.
Kent Nielsen scores his third goal for the club and in so doing contributes his 10th goal involvement in a Villa shirt on his 61st appearance (58 Starts) to make it W32 D12 L17, 3 Goals and 7 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 6.10 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Gordon Cowans contributes his 85th assist in a Villa shirt on his 460th appearance (443 Starts) to make it W212 D107 L141, 58 Goals and 85 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.22 games he has played so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
One of the most controversial games in Villa’s history, heading into the 2nd leg Villa held a 2-0 lead and victory, while not assured, was certainly a strong possibility. The game however would not play out that way and a controversial refereeing performance - including allowing an Inter Milan goal despite the cross having clearly been delivered from a position out of play - saw Villa harshly penalised throughout and Inter the beneficiaries of the referee’s largesse. Such were the scale of the ‘errors’ by the officials on the night that still today there are real suspicions as to whether something altogether more sinister was going on. Internazionale would go on to win the UEFA Cup. Undeservedly then, Jozef Vengloš’ Villa were dumped out of the UEFA cup and had now lost twice in as many games. This demoralising defeat acted almost as a watershed moment for Vengloš’ Villa as their strong start to the season - losing only twice in fourteen games and winning nine - gave way to relegation form and a tumble down the table.

On This Day
Jozef Vengloš' Villa lose at Highfield Road despite David Platt's opener. Villa had now not won in five and had won just three in their last seventeen as Jozef Vengloš debut season began to unravel. Meanwhile, midfielder and Villa cult hero Paul Birch made his final appearance for Villa aged 28 before moving on to Wolverhampton Wanderers in February for a fee of £400,000. Birchy had played for Villa between 1983-84 and 1990-91 making 184 appearances and scoring 23 goals. Birch, who tragically passed away aged just 46 from cancer in 2009, is still the subject of one of the most popular terrace chants that rings out from Villa home and away. A wonderful player who will never be forgotten.

On This Day
Villa bounce back from their late defeat to Coventry to secure their first win in 6 and second in their last 11 as David Platt misses his first game of the season.
Meanwhile the Evening Mail still aren't happy because Jozef Vengloš' 13th win in 31 games (9 defeats) wasn't exciting enough despite his side sitting 13th in the table.
Winger Nigel Callaghan, 26, makes his final appearance in a Villa shirt just two years after Villa paid Derby County £650,000 for his services. In total Callaghan made 31 appearances and scored once in his Villa career spanning 1988-89 to 1990-91 and proved to be one of the least successful signings in Villa’s history. Callaghan was released to Stafford Rangers.
Chris Price makes his 125th appearance in a Villa shirt (123 Starts) to make it W54 D31 L40, 2 Goals and 4 Assists so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Villa concede five goals for the second time in six games.
Defender Andy Comyn, 22, made his final appearance in a Villa shirt before moving on to Derby County in August 1991 for a fee of £200,000. Comyn had cost Villa £34,000 two years earlier and had made 21 appearances across the 1989-90 and 1990-91 seasons.
The Birmingham Evening Mail sink to a new low as their ongoing attempts to destabilise the reign of Jozef Vengloš sees them plaster their back page with “FOR GOD'S SAKE GO DR JO!”. Perhaps emboldened by their similar successful campaign earlier in the season against the manager of neighbours Birmingham, the paper was anything but constructive or helpful after an admittedly chastening defeat. The irony however that they admitted “It was true that in a vividly entertaining first half Villa should have scored four times” was not lost on readers who witnessed the game without an agenda.
Villa had suffered from bad luck and naiveté throughout Vengloš’ reign but the number of bad performances could be counted on one hand, results however was another thing.
Villa had now lost for fifteenth time in forty three games under Jozef Vengloš having also secured fifteen wins to sit 17th in the table - exactly where they had been two years previously under the feted Graham Taylor - four points clear of relegation with a game in hand over the bottom three.
Gordon Cowans makes his 475th start in a Villa shirt (492 Appearances) to make it W219 D118 L154, 59 Goals and 92 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.25 games he has played so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Villa concede five for the second successive game and the third time in seven games but the match proves very different at Elland Road as Villa fight back twice to equalise before three late Leeds goals end Villa's resistance.
Meanwhile the Birmingham Evening Mail are presumably skipping with joy as they can put the knife in even further despite the hypocrisy of admitting beneath the headline that Villa aren't going down.
Tony Daley makes his 200th appearance in a Villa shirt (170 Starts) to make it W71 D50 L79, 28 Goals and 23 Assists at a goal involvement rate of one for every 3.92 games he has played so far in his Villa career.
Kent Nielsen scores his 5th goal in a Villa shirt on his 93rd appearance (90 Starts) to make it W39 D23 L31, 5 Goals and 7 Assists so far in his Villa career.
Centre forward Gary Penrice's goalless streak extends to his 10th appearance (7 Starts) to make it W2 D2 L6, 0 Goals and 1 Assist so far in his Villa career.

On This Day
Jozef Vengloš' Villa end the season with a draw and unbeaten in two after a troubling second half of the season. One win in the final ten games and five defeats, three of which saw Villa concede five goals had followed a previous 10 game spell of three wins and five defeats. November to January had also seen a ten game spell of three defeats and three wins and so you would have to go back to October to find any sign of consistent, positive form. That though was the paradox as Jozef Vengloš first sixteen games had brought nine wins and just three defeats. In the end then a season that had promised so much became unrecognisable after defeat in Milan in the UEFA Cup. The consequences of that downturn in form resulted in the inevitable departure of Vengloš and also the loss of Villa captain David Platt. Whilst not the most charismatic of heroes, midfielder Platt had played for Villa between 1987-88 and 1990-91 and had become an instant success in Villa’s midfield with his non stop energy, box to box movement and goalscoring prowess. Platt made 155 appearances and scored 68 goals in his 3 seasons with Villa. Villa had paid Crewe Alexandra £200,000 for his services and he left aged 25 for a fee of £5,500,000. A club figurehead and now England international was allowed to leave as Villa fans were once again calling into question Chairman Doug Ellis’ motives following his terrible strategy and management decisions in the mid 80’s and the loss of Villa boss Graham Taylor the previous season - seemingly without a fight. As a result the close of the 1990-91 season threw up far more questions than answers. Those concerns would however be addressed just weeks later as a new era dawned for Villa in the 1990s. Centre forward Tony Cascarino made his last appearance for Villa aged 28 before moving to Celtic in July for a fee of £1,100,000. Cascarino had played for Villa in 1989-90 and 1990-91 making 54 appearances and scoring 12 goals. Right back Kevin Gage made his final appearance for Villa aged 27 before moving on to Sheffield United in November 1991 for a fee of £150,000. Gage had been used relatively sparingly in his final season with Villa but that could not hide the outstanding contribution he made to the club, a regular scorer (for a full back) and obvious commitment, Gage was another outstanding buy by Graham Taylor. Gage played for Villa between 1987-88 and 1990-91 making 145 and scoring 12 goals.
