7 'Dream Transfers' That Turned Into Nightmares 

Tevez: "I dreamed to play for Boca Juniors" Also Tevez: "I don't like football"

Video idea: Lionel messi’s teammates from his final barça b game: where are they now?

1:06 where's Eddie Howe?:(

I feel so bad for hazard, it's partially on him but he's also being used poorly. He joined his boyhood club after one of his best season and was getting to be coached by his childhood idol. He was so good for us the past 7 years an absolute hero of the bridge, wish he regains his form and destroys whatever league he plays in.

The Bony joke at the end was hilarious

What on earth is going on at deportivo la curuña

Honorable mention: Heiko Westermann to Ajax. Having played at Schalke 04, HSV and Real Betis as well as having 27 caps for Germany to his name, Heiko Westermann was recommended by ex-teammate Rafael van der Vaart to bring some experience to a young Ajax defense in the 2016/17 season where they reached the Europa League final. He only played 4 games that entire season and was mostly memed for his appearance, nickname and clumsiness on the ball. He remains beloved as a cult-hero with fans and created a positive atmosphere in the dressing room but he'll forever be one of Marc Overmars' worst signings ever. Westermann went to Austria Wien before retiring a year later, now being a youth coach back in Germany.

When you said Lescott to Villa I instinctively said “oh dear”

Lescott is such a huge Villa fan that he went to Everton over Villa, then City over Villa and then Baggies over Villa before deciding to make his dream come true.

Can you do a what on earth happened to Eden Hazard? It’s so sad seeing him like this, hopefully his injuries stop and his form picks up to what it was at the bridge. Maybe he can come back to Chelsea on loan next seasons to see if Madrid is the issue

Correction: Vidal is back at Sevilla

On my FM 21 I picked up Wilshere on a free for Southampton and he had a amazing 18 months for me and Arsenal bought him for £18 million, they sent him straight to reserves before releasing him on a free. Felt so sorry for him

Fabio Quagliarella to Napoli is in your honourable mentions, however I believe it should’ve been part of your top three. Considering how much the move damaged him personally and affected his career.

Robbie Keane not doing well at Liverpool broke my heart😢🤣

I genuinely feel so bad for your Honourable Mention Ricky Lambert. Brendan Rodgers’ plan was for Liverpool to sign Alexis Sanchez and Lambert would be the backup striker/impact sub; but the Sanchez move fell through, we ended up signing Balotelli instead, and because Mario couldn’t be arsed, the expectations fell on a 30+ year old Lambert to play a full 90mins every game :(

Robbie Keane might've meant it when he talked about wanting to play for the LA Galaxy because he became a club legend

12:57 made my day

Day 16: 7 best players to have never played in the champions league

Documentary Idea: Spanish football during the Franco era.

How about Joey Altidore, he was great at AZ but when he moved to the Premiere League he scored just ONE SINGULAR GOAL.

Third time asking: Do 7 best managers who are currently un employed

Mendieta. At Valencia, he was brilliant. Moved to Lazio,with no luck. Ended up on the bench at Middlesbrough via Barcelona. What a pity.

Hazard as my favourite player of all time to see him in the state he is in is sad

What a video. Love your content man

Before watching this video I’m trying to guess: Zaha to United Coutinho to Barca Hazard to Madrid

Hazard wasn't a bad transfer ... injuries can ruin a career, this is different. When hazard started to be fit, he was unplayable, even at Real. The game vs PSG was the start of his nightmare. But I'm convinced that without that first injury, he would have been the player we saw at chelsea, maybe even better.

Day 11: Ranking every World Cup winning captain by their playing ability.

Nice to see a pic of my beloved St. Pats in here

Can you make a video on what separates Robert Lewandowski, Thomas Mueller, Arjen Robben like players from other good players players. They all have skills and talents yet these 3 are the only ones always out performing every season. If they come to Premiere League Would they break under pressure?

Hazard one still hurts... I remember being hyped ... .

Appreciate your videos alfie

Day 1: Can people stop making Day ... suggestions. It is childish.

Video on Bradford City's turnaround since their change of management.

Zaha to United is a good one especially considering he’s realised his point entail since leaving when he could be leading the line with rashford and cavani or martial

Coutinho to Barca ??

great video, Alfie!

Can you do a part 2 pls really enjoyed this one.

Shane Duffy has been arguably the worst pound for pound in the history of Scottish football, rank rotten

9:33 wow Hazard looks like he’s aged five years

2:00 The right way of saying it ✅

At points this season I genuinely struggled to understand how Duffy is a professional footballer

Video idea: 7 forgotten clubs who used to rule domestically First Vienna FC (Austria), Union Saint-Gilloise (Belgium), Dukla Praha (Czech Repulblic), Pro Vercelli (Italy), Fredrikstad FK (Norway), Gornik Zabrze (Poland), Örgryte IS (Sweden)

Fun fact: The accident that led to Lescott's head scar occurred right infront of my nan's house in Quinton, Birmingham. She remembered it well, said it was horrible. Also, he was shite in that relegation season. Deserved top spot.

Day 10: rank pele's 125 greatest living players of all time list

If you want to know Jack Wilsheres exact location of boyhood, it’s Hitchin and I know this because I go to the exact same school that he went to, we have two shirts (one england and one Arsenal) signed by him.

Suggestion: Clubs that took on the most debt during covid

Baloteli story was touching 😖

Feel for Duffy as his father died before the Celtic move and had struggled for club and country he’s definitely a lower premier league player

well, despite being a São Paulo fan, i don't think Daniel Alves's arrival is a total nightmare yet, yeah he may be disliked a lot due to some attitudes out of field, but he isn't playing that bad, now that the team is under a new coach i still believe there's a light at the end of this tunnel

Its refreshing to hear Alfie laughing lol

7 most controversial transfers of all time would be good to see.

7 good to average players that would look like the GOAT if you showed someone their highlight reel (or a catchier title than that.) E.g Olivier Giroud or John O'shea, keeping a clean sheet against spurs, that goal against arsenal and nutmegging Figo.

Honestly Quagliarella deserved top spot, playing for your dream club and having what happened to him go down is without a doubt the worst possible scenario in a dream transfer

Hazard, Coutinho, Shevchenko, Griezemann, Coutinho, Sanchez. Also, another Hull reference.

7 players with troubled upbringings that made them what they are today: Those for whom it destroyed their careers: Quaresma, balotelli, ravel Morrison etc Those for whom it spurred them on to achieve: Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Suarez etc

Taribo West to Plymouth Argyle. We got absolutely screwed on that one.

Dream move to Brescia...uh-huh

Video Idea: Top 7 teams who’s whole teams have been capped less the Sergio Ramos

Why not make a part 2? It seems like you cut a lot of names so a sequel might not be a bad idea.

Taking credit for Robbie Keane making this list, Twitter reply 🤛🏼

Alex Vidal plays for Sevilla not sure if it’s a loan

Suggestion. Great players, that refused to play for their national teams.

Need someone to go through all Alfies videos to count how many times he has mentioned the Hull play off final, personally i dont have a year to check

Jack wilshere actally scored twice nad assisted in his first couple of games back at bournemouth before his red.

7 best national teams from countries with a population of less than 10 million people. Or 7 best leagues from countries with less than 10 million people. I'm from Denmark and it would be fun to see an outside perspective on this.

Video suggestion:7 one time champions league winners,where are they now?

Robbie Keane was some player though, he just never really found a side or system from that side he fitted into, he played very well alongside Niall Quinn and Jermaine Defoe though.

Day 14: 7 worst players who scored a hattrick in either the premier or champions league

For the record, Keano stated numerous times in Spurs Programmes that he is a Liverpool & Celtic supporter.

Idea : 7 player who wore No 7 and scored more than 7 goals in less than 7 matches after 7 pm and before 7 am.

actually, balotelly is a childhood Ac Milan fan, and was seen wearing our shirt whilst at Inter. He flopped for us too so would fit on the list regardless lol

Dude I have to get one of those West Ham Fila kits with Doc Martens as the sponsor.

curious about the comment if you grow up in Catalonia you'll probably support Barcelona. I always assumed it was like Liverpool or Manchester where locals supported the 'local' of the two teams, in this case Espanyol.

Video idea: 7 great goal scorers that made less than 30 assists

Keane’s liverpool days are as much of a nightmare as that mic quality when talking about it🥴

I'm predicting Fabregas, coutinho, hazard (thumbnail), robinho?

Philipe Coutinho should really be in this. Dream transfer to barcelona has been absolutely atrocious and has ruined his career

Today is the day we will never forget because HITC SEVENS forgot to put a picture of Eddie Howe on the screen when he Said anyhow

Aleix Vidal did score a goal vs Real Madrid tho, you can’t take that away from him

Alex Vidal plays for Sevilla now

“Without out further ado” 🙏

Please do ''Top ten best World Cup Runners up country''

Hazard said Chelsea was never a club that played to win the UEFA or something like that . So we had a meeting with top Baloyi bempela and cast a spell on him . if he apologizes we will lift the curse .

Gotta love how he shamelessly plugs Hull City lol

where you getting these images from dude lol

I really can think of at least 20 better choices for this video

Aleix Vidal plays for Sevilla

I'd still have Hazard back at Chelsea I just have no idea how we got so lucky with his health & all the tackles he's taken seemed to have caught up with him, Meunier seems to blame tbh that dirty tackle that broke his ankle when he was playing for PSG the 2-2 at the Bernabeu. Hopefully he's fit for the Euros as he's Belgium's big game player (Lukaku & De Bruyne always dissappear)

The covid chants in grounds oh i cannot wait lol

7 most interesting career paths (anelka for example)

Vidal is at Sevilla not alaves

You went through all the successes of most players in this list but Lescott winning 4 trophies including 2 Premier Leagues, didn’t get a mention?

You should do a documentary style video on how Rangers went from bankrupt to champions!

7 best clubs to have never won the Champions league or Europa league

Can see this happening with Sancho and Utd

Is it the fact that I'm American that I can't hear the name "windass" without thinking "you mean farts???"

Day 12: 7 best international tournaments ever in your opinion (world cup,euro,etc.)

He really started laughing because the Wilfred bony song started playing in his head

No league has more of those examples than the brasileirão, its extremely common for Brazilian players to go back to brazil in the later third of their careers, and most of the time they try to play for either their childhood club, or the club they supported most of their lifes, and if not for that club, they will ask for comletitive wages, and thanks to the fluctuations of brazilian football, most of the time, only a handful of clubs will be able to pay Some players are more of a PR move than a coach desire, and most of the time, the expectations the supporters have for someone that openly suport a rival are really high, I could make a seven only out of brazilian league nightmare transfer, every season there will be a player that will move back to brazil and be so catastrophic that the club will risk to stop existing From Pato to corinthians to Fred to cruzeiro, to robinho to Santos, just imagine, if neymar was to come back to brazilian football, he would not come back to a financially broken santos on the second tier, and only a handfull of clubs will be able to pay a competitive wage for him, half of them, historical rivals of santos And even if works out, a player past his best, injure prone, famous for scandals, with sympathy for your greatest rivals and with an wage that would be able to pay for at least the three best players on the league together would not be on any manager dream, but a great publicity oportunity It will not be hard to think he will have a hard time, and if he fail, he may take the club down to dept. Actually, even when it works like when ronaldinho joined atletico and won everything with them, athletico is now with a debt greater than a decade of income and still havent paid half of ronaldinho salaries a decade later

Shane Duffy. My God, he is absolutely woeful.
