I would argue that David Beckham belongs on this list.
Manchester United got rid of a player they no longer wanted while simultaneously making room for Cristiano Ronaldo to blossom at Old Trafford.
Real Madrid got a player that more than payed his transfer fee in shirt sales alone and contributed fantastically on the pitch.
Beckham was able to grow his profile and his brand into another country which directly led to his move to the USA and the base of his success to this day.
10000%
I think Real made back the transfer fee in shirt sales pretty quickly too.
Imagine Beckham's crosses to Ronaldo though thing is Beckham's got forced out fergie didn't like his misses or the life style thinking he was bigger than everybody worked out for Becks anyhiw
hard to disagree with this, great shout
This is a fair call. The only downside from the Beckham deal was real madrid were dumb enough to play becks in central midfield because they already had Figo to play on the right wing. The best part of the Beckham to madrid transfer is that it meant newly elected Barca president Joan Laporta signed Ronaldinho instead because Beckham took issue with Laporta promising to sign him without consulting him first. Beckham was too full of himself at the time to realize that just how it works with club presidential elections in Spain and that they all promise to sign any number of players to get elected and once they do get in they have to figure out a way to make it happen. I’m not complaining though because R10 was a much better signing for Barca than Beckham could have ever been, in a sporting sense
The Giroud - batshuayi - Aubameyang trade worked well for a season for everyone involved
Batshuayi was a loan. It didn't work for Chelsea since they were hoping to permanently get rid of him which didn't happen and he's on their books till this day (on loan at Besiktas).
We will of course need the opposite video, a transfer where everone is dissatisfied. I'll go first with the swap deal of Alexis Sánchez and Henrinkh Mikitaryan between Arsenal and Man U
Hell yeah! Disaster upon disaster. That Gunners midfield with Sanches _and_ Ozil in their pomp was something else!!!
Torres moving from Liverpool to Chelsea springs to mind... Torres lost all his form when he went to Chelsea and Liverpool had to rush out in a panic and spend £35M on Andy Carroll, who turned out to be a disaster, on deadline day
@@theonetheonlyjoey I agree that Andy Carroll was a really bad fit for Liverpool but they also got Luiz Suarez who was great for them.
@@theonetheonlyjoey except Torres was already a crock at that point. Liverpool laughed to the bank after those injuries had taken their toll.
@@karlfroberg520 forgot they got Suarez at the same time, ignore me 😂
McGrath was a player in his own league. Could be drunk during games but still head and shoulders better then almost anyone else on the pitch. There's a reason Villa fans still call him God
McGrath is a GOAT!!!
There’s something super wholesome about these win-win-win transfers
Defoe just announced his retirement as I was watching this video and on his segment too
Olivier Giroud from Arsenal to Chelsea worked out well for all parties allowed Arsenal sign Aubameyang, Chelsea got a useful striker and Giroud got the game time he was looking for
As a Chelsea fan not at all! Giroud didn't get any way near the game play he wanted! Hence him leaving for AC Milan and Aubameyang ended up ruining Arsenal financially becoming their highest paid player and had been a shadow of his former self since then for them before revitalising his career at Barca. You're right it was a good deal for Chelsea having a useful backup but not for Arsenal, Giroud and Aubamayang.
If sterling had gone abroad, then I'd agree that Liverpool should be happy, but given that he's been a regular starter for their most direct rivals for over half a decade, I'd say it was not a good deal for Liverpool
it's as if saka signed for liverpool today
It was one of the most hated transfers by Liverpool fans because he bragged that he left only for the money.
Fikayo Tomori to AC Milan honorable mention surely. AC Milan after signing him on loan finished second in Serie A, are now on track to win Serie A, and Tomori is a permanent starter in Pioli’s Squad
Chelsea offloaded someone who wouldn’t get playing time under Tuchel, ended up winning the champions league and club World Cup, as well as the UEFA super cup
I’d also argue Tammy Abraham to Roma because he’s playing like a Serie A seasoned veteran and scored the most goals in anyones roma debut season
Thats Boris Johnson joke was a good one man. Never drop the jokes in these vids!
What a joke it is hahaha
I could never hold a grudge against Auba. Hes got a highlight reel of crushing Spurs fans dreams as long as anyone in recent memory and the most endearing smile since Cazorla
Watching this and it’s just flashed up on my phone that Defoe has retired.
Hahaha same hear 🤪
Zlatan from Barcelona to AC Milan was amazing for all parties
Day 5: Best XI right now. Simple idea but would be interesting and controversial, especially when some of the old ones will no longer feature.
I think dejan kulusevski is showing to be a good transfer for everyone asw (himself, spurs, juve)
As a Spurs fan I wholeheartedly agree. Juve didn’t want him, Deki wanted more playing time and we desperately needed reinforcements for our frontline. Could add Romero and Bentancur as well.
Slowly becoming the home for all Juve’s rejects and I’m perfectly fine with that
Juve let a great young player go when they are a terrible old team
Still not a tranfer yet mate
@@zerofox641 You signed Romero from Atalanta, not Juve
@DDeglane16 4th
Crazy timing, Defoe has just retired!
Definitely want a part two, especially since you already featured one of my suggestions 😂
Hey Alfie, I just thought of a cracking idea for a video you could do on the turbulent recent history of Goztepe in the Super Lig. They’re one of the Super Lig’s most well supported clubs (a bit like a Newcastle United, Sunderland or Strasbourg if you may). In the 2001/02 season, they finished seventh in the top flight, however from 2002 to 2008, they were relegated five times in six seasons, due to their inability to reduce their outstanding debt which resulted in the football club being banned from signing new players during that time. In August of 2007, a business based in Istanbul, vowed to take them back to the top flight making them one of the top five clubs in the country, but they were met with lots of suspicions from the fan base, and then they handed over the ownership to another bloke called Mehmet Sepil in 2014. Anyway, they’re back in the Super Lig as a solid mid table/weaker top half team. Why am I bringing all this up? Because apparently Abramovich is looking to possibly buy the club himself, after being sanctioned from the UK. It’s a crazy crazy story and may you could look into this, not to mention, they are not only a rare example of a club that is considered a neighbourhood club, as well as the fact that they’ve played in 3 different stadiums since 2011, but also in 1969, they became the first Turkish football team to play a semi-final of a European competition.
Wow
James Maddison from Norwich to Leicester. His sale came at a perfect time for Norwich, as parachute payments had finished and the club were almost bankrupt due to previous spending. I'm sure Leicester have loved him too.
Jonas from Valencia* (sort of) to Benfica has to come down as one of the best trasnfers in Portugal for all parties involved
Fully started laughing after that Ciro immobile comment😂
Jermain Defoe just retired as I was watching this fine video; how strange.
Forlan from Man Utd to Villareal potentially could sneak in, whilst man utd made a slight loss on him i think it worked out quite well for them as he was on a huge contract (at the time 40K was a lot)
Following on from Torres to Liverpool, which resulted in Forlan going to Atletico, Villarreal ended up signing Giuseppe Rossi from Manchester United. That also worked out well for all parties. At least until his unfortunate injuries but everyone did seem to benefit for a couple of years
I got 2 examples for the opposite of this video. also from the very same year:
torres to chelsea and carroll to liverpool
Carroll 🤣 I want to forget about that
I love your work. Keep it up 😍
Northampton Town being thr first club you see in a HITC Sevens video? What world is this 🤤
Plucked from a field when talking about makelele isn’t the best choice
Jozy Altidore from Sunderland to Toronto, with Jermain Defoe going the other way. Jozy actually scored plenty of goals in Canada, and Defoe was one of our best ever Premier League strikers, scoring the goals to keep us up that first season.
Toronto…..MLS is like 4th league compare to English leagues.
David Luiz to Chelsea from Benfica was a great move for both teams. Chelsea got a star CB that won them a Europa league and league trophy and Benfica got a boat load of cash plus matic who they then sold back to Chelsea for even more cash. Also both players had a pretty good career in the prem and in Portugal.
After he left we signed Jardel for 500.000€ who play 9 or 10 seasons for us even became one of our capitans.
And then in the next season Garay who was better than David Luiz for us arrived for half of what Chelsea payed.
Luiz as a CB is kinda shit. Won't call him a star at all 😂 maybe as a DM or something he'd be alright.
Only one worse in a big club, might be Maguire.
Great video. Would love a part 2
Ohhh I love this video! Would love to see a part 2
“Agents and other parasites” 🤣
Good video this I enjoyed it, well thought through and as always explained your opinions well! Keep up the good work, your videos are always different from the usual which I enjoy!
That Johnson joke was absolutely class haha
5:06 Lovely picture I must say
Great video and amazing inclusions, the Immobile one made me think about a video: Players that only work out in a specific league or tournament.
As a fan of football, I really enjoy Alfie talking about parasites with a picture of Mino Raiola
Great vid, would watch a pt.2
Another brilliant video.
Do a part two, this is your best video for ages
Loved this video alfie :)
Would love to see a video of the opposite (transfers that worked for no one) e.g. alexis Sanchez to man united
i would love a part 2 to this
Go on Alfie, make a part two ya great big galah.
I'd love a part 2.
This was great !
Frenkie de Jong to Barça. Ajax got a lot of money, FdJ played for his boyhood club and Barça got an amazing footballer
Great vid
Surely part two incoming!
Day 10: best sons of former players currently playing (example: Diego Simeone’s son is killing it in Serie A)
Criteria: dad must have played top flight football
Make a part 2 and I will definitely watch and press the like button
Real nice vid
Love this one
Wow that Leaning tower of Pisa metaphor for Immobile was smooth
Sterling joined Man City in 2015 on wages that are still above what anyone at Liverpool earns even now in 2022. The 3 trophies he's failed to win at City though, are the 3 trophies Liverpool won in 2019 (Champions League, Super Cup and Club World Cup).
Liverpool offered him higher wages then what he signed on for
Day 3 of asking Alfie if he'd be willing to do a documentary on Detroit City FC and to highlight a club with partial fan ownership, a huge grassroots community, and a team with some rowdy and sweary supporters in the Northern Guard. Would also highlight lower league teams in the US too.
Hey Alfie, May you please do a video on 7 Greatest Playmakers of all time and/or in the premier league era
5:04 - Moving to a city where he's Loved.
You're the main man at HITC now
Very good. Great entertainment
you should do transfers that didn’t work out for either parties
When Dozy Antiscore left it was like a huge weight being lifted, I lost count of the amount of times he should have scored but it didn’t, it was almost like he really didn’t want to
This went down very well...
Ahhh the world is healing Barca have a top class African striker, and arsenal are back to finishing fourth
Seven players who hitc sevens has most frequently featured as an honorable mention
Hojbjerg going to Spurs and Walker-Peters going to Saints the other way worked out for both teams.
I would argue looking back as a spurs fan, could be better for us. Hojberg is solid but we would be starting KWP at right wing back right now, our clearly weakest position
@@joeparker6774 its hindsight, if we didnt have Hojbjerg we’d still have dele or winks alongside Skipp hindering his performances because of their lack of quality
Unless Ndombele some how performed like magic near skipp they could create opportunities much better
really good video! 3 mins of intro tho haha
I would definitely mention Alexis Sanchez United got him off his insane wages and Inter went on to win the league for the first time in a decade
Atletico Madrid's run of great strikers is unmatched in Europe. Going from Fernando Torres to Diego Forlan, to Sergio Aguero, to Radamel Falcao, to Antoine Griezmann, to Luis Suarez is obscene.
Kalinic martinez
jude bellingham definitely deserves a mention
How did Birmingham City benefit from the deal though?
@@carltonlebossthe transfer fee literally saved the club from administration
That line about pisa was legendary
Defoe was a great player and now he’s retired he should be proud of his football career
If we're going very recent: Ansgar Knauff going from Dortmund's second team to Eintracht Frankfurt and being named best young player of the Europa League (yeah yeah, I know, it's just a loan but whatever).
if u ever make a part 2, I would say Kroos from Bayern to Madrid, but I don't really know
I was very surprised to see the cobblers at the start of the video
You should also do the reverse: transfers that worked out for no one eg Mkhitaryan and Sanchez swap
Vlahovic is a good steal too
The Transfers in Question were Masterstrokes but Sadly nowadays Player Power is Wreaking Havoc in the Market
Do a video about transfers that were great off the pitch but not inside it example messi to psg
Auba looks like a different player at Barcelona. Hard to believe it's the same player who looked so awful and disinterested at Arsenal the past few seasons.
And Pierre-Emerick put on an amazing display in El Clasico.
Jermain Defoe actually just retired
When there is crazy changes on HITC sport, you can come to HITC sevens and it's just the way you left it! 😂
Can you do a flip video of transfers the should have worked out but didn’t I.e messi to psg
i love your videos, but why you never mencionate Manuel Pellegrini's work?
(in this case, his importance in Villarreal)
Not sure if you already did it. But the opposite would be a good option. Only one party having the best of it. Like Shevchenko to Chelsea. Milan won a Champions League, Sheva flopped at Chelsea
How about a video about players who never seem to get injured 🤔
I loved the video
Get a part 2 on the go
13:20
I present to you, Tor-Naldo
Can you make a top 7 transfers that didn’t work out for anybody?
Great .
I think the transfer of my thumb to the like button was the best transfer discussed today
Good one.
I can already see David Beckham to Real Madrid featuring in part 2 and maybe Bruno to Manchester United
Brunos washed
@@Swan94y You're bitter and twisted
me and the dog enjoyed the video
wow snuck in the boris roast. well done good sir
crack on with part two
Defoe for altidore to me was the best transfer for Sunderland.
pop sensation jamie webster @ 10:50
Day 2: Completely irrelevant to the topic of this video, but considering that the last player who played in the miracle of Bern died about 4 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
