7 Biggest Clubs Who've Never Won A Top Flight Title 

Leverkusen's 2002 campaign was just ridiculous. They finished 2nd on every single stage they entered (Bundesliga, DFB-Pokal, CL), and in addition, the German players at Leverkusen also finished 2nd at the world cup that year. Michael Ballack was in 2nd place 4 times that seaaon.

2002 levakusen squads heartbreak. Top of bundesliga heading into the final game of the season 2 points ahead of bayern. Were in the dfb pokal final and champions league final. They were going for the treble but at the end of season they had no titles. Cant imagine the heartbreak the players went through. And if that wasnt enough ballack lost the world cup final as well

7 best forwards who have never scored a hat trick

VIDEO IDEA: *EVERY EPL CLUB'S BEST ACADEMY PRODUCT* (Could be current squad or ever, or even last 7 years to be fitting to the channel)

Chile 2014 World Cup Squad: Where Are They Now?

🇮🇸 iceland first 11 vs engalnd in 2016 where are they now

A player with everyone thought would flop but became amazing. Could be a 7 or 11

Hitc "villareal have never won anything" Villareal - and I took that personally

4th time a charm: Players who are legends in their own country, but hardly known outside. Example: Willem van Hanegem is considered to be in the top 5 all time Dutch players (many consider him the best after Cruyff before Van Basten, Gullit, Bergkamp, Robben etc.). But he only played in Holland, so people abroad don't really know him.

Watford were Premier League Champs in 2007-08... IN my fifa 2005 Manager Mode

Another honourable mention for England would be Bolton Wanderers. I realise they're not exactly a big club as of the time of writing, but they've spent more seasons in the English top flight than any other side never to have won it, and they've won four FA Cups. Like West Ham, their best finish is 3rd, on three occasions.

Seven examples of great players who missed out on their countries golden generation i.e. Laszlo Kubala and Istvan Nyers for Hungary during the early to mid 1950s or Raul for Spain in the late 2000s.

Ballack's 2002 was pretty tragic, he ended up finalist/close runner up of the Bundesliga, the german cup, the Champions League and the World Cup

funfact: leverkusen has even earned the nickname "vizekusen" in germany because they came runners-up so many times in various competition (bundesliga, cup, CL)

I'm happy you finally did this topic as I was asking for it for a few months now ...not in every comment section...just a few. :) Thanks.

Day 18: ranking every bvb striker since robert lewandowski.

7 smallest club to reach UCL final. 😁

Very amazing content loved it mate keep it up!

Great video👏🏻👏🏻

Day 2: What if all players that could play for them played for Athletic Bilbao XI

Thank you Alfie, just watched it with my son and told him that it must be Leverkusen on top. I remember being over home watching the drama unfold. Also 2002, they had three runners up in three comps and for some even four. The ones going to represent Germany at the world cup. Honestly, it's not my favourite side but that year I felt for the players.

Great idea for a video! 👍 Didn’t know the Hammers were title- less

As a Portsmouth fan it makes my day when reminded that Southampton have never won a top flight title.

Also honorable mentions : FC Utrecht in the Netherlands, and the Ankara based clubs in Turkey (a league dominated by the Istanbul based clubs).

You do have a half-Spaniard viewer here, and yeah Villareal were only big this century, not quite before that. But if I had put a Spanish side in this list, it would be Real Zaragoza. They do have that one continental triumph Arsenal fans wanna forget, but they have never won La Liga despite, until about 10 years ago, having a consistent presence in the 1st Division.

Hamburg's Relegated 2017/18: Where Are They Now?

Bayer Leverkusen has just won the Bundesliga

Love this Alfie

Day 49: XI of most own goals scored since 2010/of all time

Top drawer quality stuff....keep it up.

All time Premier League 11 vs All time La Liga 11 And same could be done for other Leagues SeriesA, League1 and Bundisliga

For Spain it should be Real Zaragoza. They've been out of La Liga for years, but they've won 6 Copa del Rey's and a UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

Video idea: Greatest year for every national team. For example England 1966(im not sure if that is their best year) or uruguay 1930

Leverkusen is one of my go to teams to manage in Football Manager, mainly as I like the idea of being the first manager to bring them a title :)

Whos where after leverkusen finally cracked the bundesliga?

love that thumbnail xD

As a Leverkusen fan for 22 of my 26 years of age, topping this list is the most Leverkusen thing ever. Of course we get first on a list ranking clubs we fail to win titles :D

HITC Sevens please may you do do a video on 7 of the most surprising league champions in football.

Can you do a video about what would have happend if every premier league club's best player, would have played for their rival team. Like if Harry Kane would have played for Arsenal, if Aguero played for Man u ,etc.

Nice one. A good one would be 7 countries most likely to win FIFA world cup in future that haven't won already. Reasons such as rich history, growing popularity, large population, etc (eg, USA, Netherlands, Japan, Mexico, Nigeria)

6:22 Giant of world football Hull City :)) You should do a video about Hull City 2008/2009 season, first season in EPL and they were in 3rd place in September and then won only 2 more matches over the remainder of the season :))

Best XI for every continent!

Hi Alfie could you make a video on England’s run to the 2018 World Cup Semifinals as it’s been two years ago today that we beat Sweden 2-0 in the Quarterfinals. I keep on hearing people when it’s discussed that England were lucky and got an easy route and yet they still bottled it. Despite this being the same country that lost and was embarrassed to a country with the same population as Coventry in Euro 2016. It would be great to see if you have read this comment and make a video trying to debunk all the points that haters have been saying as this is a great time to be optimistic about the future tournaments. Where there is lots of great young talented English players breaking through into the first teams of their respective clubs and playing minutes of top flight football.

Suggestion : Best XI with/without body tattoos.

Bayer Leverkusen in 2001/02 were on track to win the treble and in a matter of 2 weeks they had nothing to show Lost a 5 point lead to Dortmund Lost DFB cup final to Shalke Lost champions league final vs Real Madrid The following April were in a relegation fight Arminia Beifield

Who's here after bayer leverkusen won their first bundesliga tittle

Marcos Senna had completely left my mind, he was quite good I'm pretty sure he even play with national Spanish team, I believe.

HITC Sports/HITC Sevens can you do a video of every last time a premier league team has won a premier league title.

3:26, It’s pronounced like “Tah-sah”, not “Tah-cuh”

You should do an East Germany XI if East Germany existed today or do the last season of the DDR oberliga teams where are they now. East German football is really interesting and in comparison with Soviet or Czech cold war football its ignored so it would be really great to see either of those videos or any East Germany related ideas you may have.

Fun fact, the brazilian league is very competitive, because most of the big clubs don’t have political and economic stability, so it is very difficult to predict who’s going to be champion in almost every season, but the title hardly ever goes to any club from outside of the 13 big ones. Therefore, Fortaleza, not belonging to the 13 big clubs group, will struggle to ever reach a national championship

That Parma team was LOADED for years. I remember it well growing up.

Seven national teams who have overachieved the most historically e.g. Uruguay, Portugal, Netherlands, Croatia etc.

1. Major finals where the underdogs shocked the world. 2. 7 most profitable clubs via transfers since 2010. 3. 2010 world Cup stars where are they now? Eg Gyan, Tshabalala. 4. 7 best players who were released by an academy but still went pro

The Braga stadium is amazing

It's always nice to see a foreign channel mentioning brazilian clubs and domestic football. Congrats for your work! Just two small things: 1 - in 1968, Fortaleza actually lost the Taça Brasil final to Botafogo, not Bahia. 2 - This one is more of a personal opinion than a "fact", but I think that the biggest club in Brazil to never won the national championship/"league" is Vitória, from the Bahia state.

Lol this is exactly the inspiration i needed for a new Football Manager save

Can you do small clubs who won big trophy

U should do the last 7 teams to win the old first division

Oh wow my hometown club actually got mentioned! Braga!

Do a video showing the worst team to have won a title next pls

Can you discuss the topic of the UEFA coefficent ranking and its history as a documentary

as a Leverkusen fan, it hurts so much, especially after just losing the DFB Pokal finale...

Video Suggestion : Seven players who have had a resurgence this season ( e.g. Jerome Boateng )

Best homegrown XI in premier league. (This means players that played for more than 3 years in England before the age of 21.)

Video idea: closest title races

Day 11: every scorer of the 2010 World Cup, what happened next?

This is making me want to make these title wins happen in Footie Manager lol

Suggestion: 2nd and 3rd division teams that have a big fanbase despite rarely making it to the top flight.

This is the best list to choose a club to start FM save

And Bayer Leverkusen reached the Champions League final in 2002, losing to Real Madrid and THAT wonder volley by Zinedine Zidane.

I knew Neverkusen would be in here, but didn't expect them to be #1

Make a video on last time liverpool team won a domestic league . where are they now .

In Brazil there is a lot of them: Ponte Preta, Portuguesa, Vitória, Goiás.

Hello what of a vidoe of small clubs that have never won a trophy at all such as CD Guadalajara in Spain

Alfie: says that 5 teams have won the portougise league Also alfie in 2:52: "That means that any club outside of those 4"🤣

Best and most entertaining matches that finished 0-0

I would say that historically Fortaleza is a lesser club, traditional but much smaller than so many clubs in Brazil. They are nondivisional just a few years ago. They are traditional, but they were very insignificant in national terms. Goias, Ponte Preta, Santa Cruz, Nautico, Portuguesa, Vitoria Ba, Bangu, America, America Mg, Vila Nova Go. However, if they keep like that they will eventually get something for their merits, they are very organized right now.

0:10 And Olympiakos is currently at court for match fixing and out of their last 5 presidents only 2 are out of jail(the last one is prohibited to have any association with football)

So.. by all logic, Leverkusen should have been in second spot for this video 😅

came for Neverkusen was not disappointed

"I'm limiting myself to one club per nation". Shit - I was looking forward to watching this, too . . . oh well.

Make a video on premier league blues vs red PL blues - man city ,Chelsea ,Everton , Leicester PL reds- Liverpool ,United ,arsenal ,bornmouth

Im quite shocked my team (atalanta) wasnt on here in my opinoin were defenetly in the top 2

7 players that could have played for bigger countries but did not. Like Aubameyang and Koulibaly. Could be an XI.

I hope Bayer won this season. They realy deserve with so many great and young players, great fan atmosfere but it's very unlikely against Bayern who won 11 times in a row. Theye bottled 2 times in last matchday. I'm not Bayer fan but I hope they win Bundesliga this year.

6:36 and let's hope it stays that way.

You should do a reverse of this

West Ham also won the Olympic gold in 1900 when Upton Park FC represented the GB and won the tourney.

7 biggest rivalries in club football between 2 clubs from different countries

oh but despite that mean comment, great topic thank u

I am a 49th liker of this video,good friends!!!:-D

Do an XI of players with a song named after them. Example: Thiago Silva, Karim Benzema, Mbappé, etc. Something different and fun

The most appropriate club from australia for this list would definitely be the Western Sydney Wanderers, even though they’ve only been around for less than a decade, they’ve done enough to win the AFC Champions League yet have never won the A-League

I think you've done this before but it could be the 2020 version, XI OF PLAYERS CAPPED FOR NOT BIRTH COUNTRY ie benfica and lyon goalies, hakimi, umtiti etc

How about newco Rangers?

Video idea7 best teams to never play in the champions league

Greatest XI of players of African descent who could have played for African national teams including retired players e.g. Eusebio, Zinedine Zidane, Mario Coluna, Marcel Desailly, Patrick Vieira etc.

real zaragoza should be spains one ahead of villareal and espanyol, i dont even know how Getafe a club formed in the 80s gets an honorable mention ahead of cubs like mallorca or sporting gijon.
