7 Greatest Premier League Players In EVERY Position & All Time XI 

3 hours worth of HITC sevens? Count me in!

Alfie, I've watched tens of your videos, liked quite a few but I've never commented. I have to say man, for you to drop this seven is INSANE. This is the final boss of all Sevens. You deserve everything for this. Thanks man

Here is the summary of this great video GK: 1. Peter Schmeichel 2. Cech 3. Van der Sar 4. De Gea 5. Seaman 6. Southall 7. Reina RB: 1. Gary Neville 2. Kyle Walker 3. TAA 4. Zabaleta 5. Rob Jones 6. Lee Dixon 7. Azpilicueta CB: 1.Ferdinand 2. Terry 3. Sol Campbell 4. Adams 5. Vidic 6. Kompany 7. Van Dijk LB: 1. Ashley Cole 2. Irwin 3. Evra 4. Baines 5. Le Saux 6. Winterburn 7. Robertson DMF: 1. Roy Keane 2. Vieira 3. Carrick 4. Paul Ince 5. Kante 6. Fernandinho 7. Henderson AMF: 1. Scholes 2. Lampard 3. Gerrard 4. David Silva 5. Fabregas 6. De Bruyne 7. Yaya Toure RW: 1. Salah 2. Ronaldo 3. Beckham 4. McManaman 5. Ljungberg 6. Joe Cole 7. Mahrez LW: 1. Giggs 2. Hazard 3. Sterling 4. Bale 5. Pires 6. Mane 7. Heung Min Son CF: 1. Henry 2. Shearer 3. Rooney 4. Aguero 5. Kane 6. Bergkamp 7.

Fun fact #5:No English manager has won the Premier League.The last to do so was Howard Wilkinson who won the Football First League Division with Leeds United the prior year of the league being renamed to Premier League(1991-92). P.S.I have to also thank you for the effort you put on these videos especially this one I enjoy them very much.

3 hours 6? God almighty

3 hours vid to listen to while playing my WBA season on FM 22, happy days.WP HTC Sevens

Day 49: Considering that the last player who played in the miracle of Bern died about 7 months ago, I would really like to see a video about the whole story between Germany and Hungary, especially because it meant so much to at least the German population

Alfie you've outdone yourself. Can't imagine how long this took to make

For GK, i never watch Southall played, but i think Shay Given is too underated, i would rank him at least before reina

Alphie's grind can never be questioned.

Henderson got sent off in the 3-2 game vs Man City in 2013/14 season and I remember saying “this could be an issue in the next few games” and I am 100% certain that if he had of played in that 2-0 loss to Chelsea, Gerrard would not have slipped

This is a Certified HITC Classic and hopefully More to Follow … 🔥🙏🏿. ⚽️

I watched the whole thing, twice and enjoyed it both times very much. Keep on keeping on, Alfie. Thank you.

The amount of time and work Alfie puts in to make this content, is actually incredible.

Gerrard was made in the wrong era, could you imagine him playing in Klopps era? OMFG!!! He could have been much more of a phenomenal LEGENDARY player, don't forget the shit players he had to carry on his back which resulted in him having a broken back from the weight of carrying a team. Youre going back to a time where paid 35 million for andy carrol, sold suarez to buy a 1 million quid brick layer, had a hopeless lb for more years than i want to remember. When we got Milner on a free and then he played pretty much 18 months in lb position, it was then our Liverpool started to change, was a very long process but as you can see now how our youth academy has been nurtured and adapted to our current team! ❤ So sad Klopps leaving but hes not left our club in the shit like whiskey nose did, it has to be Alonso next manager because he will not rip up the blueprints in the foundation of our club Klopp has left!!! ❤❤❤YNWA 97 ❤❤❤

A video about the success story of Port Vale since Carol Shanahan took over, considering we just won the playoff final.Her charity work, bringing in Darrell Clark, then the things he went through this season. Plus we were on a winning streak and 1 point off the playoffs and she voted to end the first covid season early.....The fact our ground was nearly bought and demolished for a car park or shopping centre or something before that as well Carol saved the club.

this is a huge W of a video! loved it nd it was really good, cant disagree with most of the choices and places

This is the one 😲🔥🔥 great video man!

Always amazing content, especially for an American like me trying to learn prem history.

Nice work, also do the current best 7 in each position, going by last season or last 3 seasons

Great vid,if you remember me,you know I love the long vids to listen to while I try to fall asleep (Y) lol

As a Canadian looking at these choices, I am thinking of the best hockey players to grace the NHL since I started watching the game as a kid. One player that really stands out is Bobby Orr. Part of a matched pair of defencemen (like centre backs in football) he actually finished as top scorer twice in his career, and forever changed the idea of "a rushing defenceman". He won everything that was going except best goalie: top scorer, most valuable player, top defenceman, best player in the playoffs -- you name it. There was a glow in the sky over his home town while he was still in elementary school, and if he hadn't been born with glass knees, who knows what he would have done? Still a much beloved fellow in Canada.

Request: with the news that the 2022 world cup will employ new technology to make automated offside calls, I'd be interested in a video highlighting other innovations that have debuted at world cups. Like how the 1970 world cup introduced yellow and red cards for the first time.

Dennis Irwin.. Irish free kick specialist and great defender.. if Beckham wasn't at man unt he would have scored more freekicks.. guy was class

fantastic video, much obliged.

Alfie, you might be the only channel with just a voice and essentially a slideshow that i like, keep up the stellar work dude

I think Lauren was an underrated RB, so many other stars in that team he flew a bit under the radar. Quality player though Edit: Fair enough, he got an honourable mention

What great work! ThanQ!

I love how you gave up making chapters a third of the way through 😂. Great vid alfie!

Great video

Great vid Alfie - could you do a ‘ranking the Champions League finals worst to best between 2000 and 2022’?

Absolutely brilliant Alfie!

13:20 Petr Cech and Robben’s transfers were agreed whilst Claudio Ranieri was Chelsea manager so they weren’t Mourinho signings as suggested in the video 👍

What an incredible video of both well known World Cup évents and obscure ones!!

Bless you Alfie, I can't believe your content is practically free to access.

You absolute mad lad for putting out this video holy moses

I feel shame to my self if i only just found your channel today, and yes! i like your vid and subscribed your channel already mate.

Could you do a video about Middlesbrough’s near Collapse, and being saved by Steve Gibson leading to European nights and The Carling Cup!

I DID IT!!!!!...😤... 😂😂😂.. I actually watched it in one sitting..

Joe Hart has to be up there with goalkeepers.... Top 5 for me

I remember Joe Cole being described as the best young prospect at West Ham when they had Carrick, Lampard and Defoe. I believe Ferdinand had gone to Leeds when I heard that. Golden generation had coaches that wanted 4 4 2 but all the players that needed 4 3 3 to make the most out of them.

Seeing Trent in this 3rd place made me laugh sooo hard, that’s absolutely ridiculous for you to put him even in the list and above such legends. Absolute disgrace.

De Bruyne for me when he leaves the prem will be in both teams and also will be the best attacking midfielder of all time in the premier league

Honorable mention on the left 7 is Damien Duff

What a fucking effort Alfie, great great video my lord, what an editor you are , top content , keep it up bro!

Best video in RU-vid history . In this universe and other universes too. Alfie is a god

Big NEV!!!! Well done you!

This is masterclass 👌🏻

Surprised no Dan Petrescu at RB :( in the top 7, but overall great video so far.

Cantona won 5 titles out of 6 seasons the one being the season he was suspended and both Wright and Henry became Arsenal's all-time top scorers partnering Bergkamp.

Took me 3 days to watch this entire video lol Filled with knowledge thou 👌🏾👌🏾

I am pleased to here you talk about Rob Jones I rated him as one of the best right backs I have seen had he been injury free we would talking about him as one of the best in the world in that position

I feel so old cos I remember the whole De Gea arch lol. From how shaky he was to start from how amazing he was, to how maligned he became. What a crazy arch

Love this video so much. Watched all of the initial videos leading up to this in a binge. I think the chosen 11 to play together is so interesting not just because it’s about who is best but what style of football is preferred, which based on what era you prefer will differ heavily. Love HITC Sevens, thanks for all the great work you do!

This is a masterclass of a video thank you so much for this gem 💎

Playing your videos while smashing fut champions, legend ❤️

Class video that

love to see you have a crack at a shorter video for once!

Forget the Ronaldinho lob, I saw the bloke from Kasabian lob Seaman at soccer aid. I was right behind the net. Its one of the best goals I've ever seen at Old Trafford

Will watch this over the 4th July weekend

I was around to see most of these players. What I can say for GKs is their prime is usually early 30s and become another level.

Although I don't agree with some of your picks and/or rankings (especially with Vidic as just the 5th CB), this is a quality video and the amount of work behind it must not be underestimated.

Alfie can you do a video of the 7 best players in each position of the UEFA Champions League era and an all time Greatest XI

Would love you to do a Brighton video. Rise from a game away from non league and most likely the end of the club to a top half premier league team

I know that this might be controversial but Mousa Dembele deserves to be here, he's just something else completely and one of the most talented players in the PL era without many considering him

god i love this channel

Great to see Rob Jones get a mention. Tremendous full back.

so nice of alfie to explain why Jordan Henderson is one of the best premier league players for over 2 hours!

Moyes getting the 6 spot in managers above league winners surprises me. But I will have to concede that some of the title winning managers not on the list have been considerd to have bought the title, or just taken over already established Chelsea and City sides.

This. Was. Amazing

This video keeps playing EVERY time i open youtube and finish a video. Like, its insane how often youtube thinks i want to watch this, and its a great video, and i LOVE Alfies content, but cmon man, it mustve been close to 100 times now😂

Peter Schmeichel as GK is like Haaland is to being a striker. You're pretty bob on, good list. Took me down memory lane, ta

Love how the vid is 3 hours and 6 mins but the longest part so far has been the introduction 🤣

This one deserves way more love

POV: You just use the video as Elfie background noise

i dont personally agree with the central defender and attacking midfields 1st place cause i think terry and lampard deserved it better but most people will find your selection really accurate and i'm one of them great video and nicely done. thinks for the efforts

I'd have had Brad Friedel in those goalies. I remember one match when he played for Villa where it seemed to be Manchester United v Friedel. He also very rarely made gaffs.

Has Alfie done a “best for the value” vid? Seamus Coleman being mentioned made me think of it

Im grateful that you put Yaya Toure on this list 🙌, He deserves it. The fact that Man City does not have a Statue of him outside the Emirates is truly heartbreaking, He deserves more.

Your Henderson Stat at 1:01:46 is wrong mate. Henderson has obviously not made the most passes in the PL era. Just the most of any player since 06/07 (when player pass quantity started to be recorded) Didn’t you find it weird that he had more passes than people like Gareth Barry? 😂Great video though, love the long-form vids.

This channel is so good and informative. Especially compared to the inane gibberish from the sister channel

This will never be broken!

Can you do "the most left and right leaning club in every European Country?" I love these kind of videos and I think it would be really interesting.

Glad to see Shay Given get a mention 👏🏼

Glad to see Dixon, Adams and Winterburn all make the 7 in their respective positions

You said "signed for a sum of *just* £7.1m" about Cech, but that was a huge fee for a goalkeeper at that time, but todays standards it might not seem much, but at the time it absolutely was.

Never a mufc or becks fan but he always turned up for the big games when really needed

Three hour video today Alfie ! 😊

* Could you do any of these? 7 3-way transfers, 7 best underdog youth league runs or 7 closest league campaigns. Thanks

Shay Given is the only gk that could concede 5 goals v LFC (or anyone else) and still be the player of the match. GOAT.

wow made it to the end

Stella work. You mentioned it, but have you done: 7 greatest individual performances over a single premiership season? Eg ronaldo 2007/8, cantona 1996/7, haaland 2022/3.???

Unbelievable that Thibaut Courtois wasn't even an honourable mention. I don't see how he could be left out or forgotten

Day 283: Indonesia XI If All Eligible Players Had Declared For Them.

epic video, your vocal cords must be a little tender.

Damn, why you do Mexico like that? 😅. No era penal!.. great vid as always

As a Liverpool fan, I happily stand by De Gea being one of the best in PL History

I saw John Terry in the thumbnail so my hopes aren't very high with this one 😭

What editing software do you use ?

I used to cut Beckham more slack. My attitude was you can’t fault a guy for being good looking any more than you can fault him for being ugly. But his business history... Yeah I can blame him for that.
