Best German players in the premier league of all time. (Day 617) I will not give up until the video is made or Alfie himself tells me to stop. Everyone else telling me that will be ignored. If you don't believe my number, just go back to the previous videos. I'm at the bottom most of the time, but I'm there.
He has shit stats. De Bruyne has 3 times better g a per 90mins. Iniesta in a normal team wouldn t be anything special. Ronaldinho outshined him we literally didn t know who tf is Iniesta while Ronaldinho was there.
In the light of Georgia qualifying for their first major tournament in history, could you make a video about Georgian football? Or even a video about Georgian Football in the USSR considering the fact that 60s-80s were the golden era of football in Georgia Thank you for the magnificent content Alfie
Video idea: 7 Strikers who never scored (played a lot of games leading the line but barely ever scored. So would be across their whole careers but Kevin Davies played 70 times for Preston to the tune of 4 goals)
Top class as ever! Wonderful to see Carlisle United at the start! Back in the 20th we beat Manchester City 1-3 at their place. This was early 1985. Jimmy Hill praised City’s neat passing style but their lack of penetration and a need for a ‘big man up front to finish the chances’, over 30 years later Harland joins! Carlisle United showed city the way!!!
gerrad, lampard, scholes were average overhyped by media just like rice , kane , saka. Best moments of scholles is Barcelona had picture of him in academy’ they had because media want to keep them relevant in the debates of great midfields and it was removed after the photo, who the fuck wantscholas as idol over Cruff .In reality the y were average, nothing special about them compared to the likes of XAVI, INIESTA and many more. Ces Faberagaes was better than lampard gerrad and scholes. But english will keep living in imagination. in 15-20 english will be saying 2024 was golden generation of england and dominated.
Always someone who don’t understand the game before 2014 crying in the comments smh Modric is GREAT but not even in an honorable mention level compared to many others
@@sluglow6357 As a pure 8 in the midfield there aren’t many better than modric after the 2000s. If it was all time maybe I’d agree. Don’t underrate this man who was able to historically help bring Croatia to the final of the World Cup
As much as we rate Ronaldihno, i think huge part of it was his aura/flair. imo, Modric, iniesta, heck even Kaka are way deserving of that spot over Ronaldihno..
His peak basically breathed new life into football though. He was doing silly things on the pitch and still winning everything. On an impact level that’s pretty unique and important especially for millennials and below.
i think what Alfie said is that initially he thought that Ronaldinho wouldn't top the attacking midfield 7, but the more he looked, the more it became harder to ignore how good he actually was, even despite his lack of longevity
@@shaquillethomas1544 You people are so obsessed it's honestly pathetic. I don't buy into this weird cult like worship nonsense. I didn't even mention Ronaldo. And yet you are so desparate to suck off Messi that you needlessly insulted a great player.
@@EnzoPepsiCola Pirlo is not quite as good as Xavi in terms of ball control, but I would say his passing is just as good (and even better from distance), plus he's a much bigger scoring threat, particularly from set pieces. Personally, I would put Pirlo on the squad instead of Busquets, then he and Xavi could switch up occasionally and control the midfield.
@@frankpentangeli7945 Pirlo much bigger scoring threat Xavi scored way more goal and was more consistent goal scorer Plus Xavi was one of the greatest big game player of all time
@@midfielderlounge2592 Don't get me wrong ... Xavi is one of my all-time favourite players. He was sensational! But he scored the same number of goals (58) in La Liga as Pirlo did in Serie A, though Pirlo played fewer games. And yes, Xavi had more goals overall, but he also had 945 total appearances to Pirlo's 756.
Under the thought that you took Buffon over Neuer due to the amount of games I would genuinely have to think about taking Müller for the number 10 if you just take numbers and trophys he's nr1 even though he can't hang with Kaka and Ronaldinho in their respective peeks.
@@BlandSockProbably blinded by nostalgia. Buffon and Neuer are pretty much on the same level in terms of traditional goal keeping but Neuer is clearly the better modern keeper. He also won more and will probably have the same longevity soon. I dont think this should even be a question.
@@auranewaters9574 tbf longevity for me is the only criteria where Buffon tops as Neuer's fallen off quite substantially over the last 3 years, maybe even since his foot injury against RM back in 2018. Still he is clear for the reasons you already stated
Sure these players were all the standout in their teams, but a team like this would never work. There’s a reason the best ever Barca team had Pedro, Villa and Mascherano
nah i think Alfie made the list in such a way so that any 11 made from them would at least be functional enough. you have defensive midfielders and elite defenders in there. Sure it wouldn't work without other players who'd complete the squad, but the 11 does work well enough
@@yethir2609 Where in the top 10 would you put Villa? We have players like Aguero, Zlatan, Suarez, Lewandowski, Rooney, Benzema, Henry, Neymar, Van Persie and Fernando Torres. Possibly CR7, Haaland and Mbappe if you consider them strikers or old enough. Villa would have to compete with the likes of Aguero, Van Persie, Rooney and Torres for a spot in the top 10 IF you don't consider CR7 Haaland and Mbappe.
Definitely above van Persie, this guy was pivotal in their world Cup win scoring most of their goals, helped in both euros and definitely was amazing in Barcelona and Atletico too. Definitely even close to Aguero
Does anyone else think that Luis Suarez, as much as everyone knows he was brilliant, is heavily underrated? I could swear I looked at a list of the top 100 ever players and he wasn’t even on it whilst Thierry Henry was something like 30th
I get you. Especially his Liverpool form because he essentially had no help. However, Thierrys overall game was crazy tho. He could play-make (20+ goals & 20 assists in ‘03), had crazy pace, do it on the wing and won at international level. So I don’t think we can diminish one in favour of the other.
He was for me the best player from 2014 to 2016 maybe. He was just unlucky that his peak was at really average Liverpool side that wasn't even in the Champions league. Also he moved to Barca at like 26,7 I think so a big part of his peak was spent at Ajax and at an average Liverpool.
Busquets was a great player and underrated during his heyday due to playing with Xavi and Inesta, but he had weaknesses in his game that got exposed as the game evolved to more physically demanding and pressing ways. In the top 30 but not top XI material imho.
For me he was the most overrated player in history. Zero stamina, average passing, did a few fancy moves here and there and people hail him as the best ever. Just because he played with legends like Messi, Suarez, Villa...
@@stefan5730it’s his grace, people couldn’t get near him, he had excellent short passing and was incredible at keeping possession which allowed prime Barca to be prime Barca. He wasn’t as good as others at tackling or heading but he was pretty good at everything, mainly he controlled games. That’s what you want as a defensive midfielder.
Bro let me tell you as a german who is optimistic for the upcoming euros, we will fail to win it😂 But Kroos should‘ve made this list even without winning the Euros
@@SomhiAustin Modric ain't a European or World Cup winner. He did overachieve with Croatia true, but others did that as well like Bale with Wales. And Croatia had once another golden generation besides the recent one so he's not even first to do it for his country even. And by now I'd have Kroos over Iniesta. Iniesta was playing in Japan at the age when Kroos (and Modric) was winning Champions leagues. Kroos >= Modric > Iniesta for me.
This video proves how much of the last 2 decades, all the financial power and world's best players were found in La Liga (as was with Serie A the decades before that) but with very little backlash faced by La Liga as is being faced by the Premier League right now
Man no Kaka, Pirlo, Modric, Xavi Alonso, De Bruyne, Iniesta? I would honestly take Suarez off and either put CR7 as a 9 or Messi as a false 9 just to put one of the aforementioned players.
14:00 i would put LW as Ronaldinho and Iniesta as CAM, R9 would be on the striker Neymar should get an honourable mention too tho, hes atleast top 5 after this generation
I'm loving the greatest XI series, since we have 3 decades of premier league I would love to know the greatest XI from each decades, no overlapping players.
You have to decide who is the greatest goal scorer from the 21st century. First you say Messi, couple minutes later you say Ronaldo... Ashley Cole instead of Marcelo is just laughable and personally, I would put Cannavaro (or Nesta, although he was a more elegant, technical and tall CB, he had many injuries. Cannavaro was always more consistent and was the face of Italy's 06 wc win) instead of Puyol.
I'm going to have to go back and watch your centre back video, but I have to say that including anyone (especially Nesta) over Fabio Cannavaro is an incredibly egregious decision. How many other centre backs won the Ballon D'Or since 2000?
@@BlandSockWhat does Buffon have over Manuel Neuer. Neuer revolutionised the Keeper position. Neuer won a World cup and played a crucial role in it. Neuer won the Triple 2 times. Everyone who picks Buffon is the same kinda guy who‘d buy mudryk cause his name sounds cool and/or is a nostalgia merchant.
I wonder what Alfie would have to say about the official greatest xi published by FIFA ballon d’or. IIRC they published 3 teams with the first team having an attacking lineup of Maradona, Messi, CR7, Pele and R9.
A new series idea, greatest player for each shirt number at club level 1-11. Analyse the quality and quantity of performances of each player with a specific shirt number. For example, Lionel Messi (10) starting from the 2008/09 season.
@@MaxZ_FX it does in fact matter because he wasn't in fact in the squad. he was in fact on loan at Leganes, Espanyol and Mallorca. lmaoooo. he didn''t win the CL with Real. he hasn't got a winner's medal. he didn't in fact win it with them.
@@T.E.S.S. thats fair, still various sources claim that he's won the champions league 4 times, while not being in the squad at real, "he still was on the winning side" .
Clarence seedorf not being mentioned in these XI's is nothing short of criminal he's literally the only player on the same level as Zidane during they're playing days
People dont understand how good he was, the technique,speed, power and overall skill. Could shot with his left could shot with his right. Could pass up 3 guys in the dribble. Knew how to attack space. Unbelievable player and imo best midfielder of all time

Neuer revolutionised the Keeper position. Neuer won a World cup and played a crucial role in it. Neuer won the Triple 2 times. Everyone who picks Buffon is the same kinda guy who‘d buy mudryk cause his name sounds cool and/or is a nostalgia merchant.
Buffon is one level above Neuer.
@@arifhussain-dl1vp How name one thing he has over him except a cooler name and nostalgia merchants who don’t even remember 99% of his games.
What makes Neuer better?
Agree with your personal team than the first one. That is the correct way to make a team.
While I adore Buffon, I think Neuer should be ahead. He changed the way all the elite keepers strive to play.
It's close but i would put R9 as center forward. Even after his knee injuries what he did for Brazil and Real Madrid was amazing
Ashley Cole over Marcelo lmaoooo
Cf:Suarez
Lw:Ronaldo, Rw:Messi, Am:Kaka,CM:Seedorf Dm;Busquets,, Lb:Cole Rb: Cafu
CB's Vidic, Ramos
GK Neuer.
Bench:Gk Van Der Sar Cb: Cheillini Fb: Lahm Dm: Keane Cm: Xavi Am: Ronaldinho. Cf: Lewandowski
COACH:Ancelloti.
I wonder what Alfie would have to say about the official greatest xi published by FIFA ballon d’or. IIRC they published 3 teams with the first team having an attacking lineup of Maradona, Messi, CR7, Pele and R9.
Love seeing Buffon here.
Barca just dominates everyone and everything
Buffon, Thuram, Nesta, Vidic, Ash Cole, Busquets, CR7, Bale, Kaka, Messi, Ronaldinho
Shoutout to recent Premier League Hall Of Fame inductee Ashley Cole, who of course made the XI. Deserved.
A new series idea, greatest player for each shirt number at club level 1-11. Analyse the quality and quantity of performances of each player with a specific shirt number. For example, Lionel Messi (10) starting from the 2008/09 season.
Imagine if he went all the way up to 99, I'd be strangely interested to know who the best ever player with shirt number 46 is
I think you forgot Seedorf. The only player to win the Champions League with 3 different clubs. And two of those came after 2000.
He's not the only player to win the Champions League with 3 different clubs. Eto'o did it as well with Real, Barca and Inter
@@MaxZ_FX he didn't win the CL at Real, oh my god. he only played 3 games for them, ffs 😂
@@T.E.S.S. that actually doesn't matter my friend, I am just stating the facts and he in fact was in the squad at that time.
@@MaxZ_FX it does in fact matter because he wasn't in fact in the squad. he was in fact on loan at Leganes, Espanyol and Mallorca. lmaoooo. he didn''t win the CL with Real. he hasn't got a winner's medal. he didn't in fact win it with them.
@@T.E.S.S. thats fair, still various sources claim that he's won the champions league 4 times, while not being in the squad at real, "he still was on the winning side" .
Clarence seedorf not being mentioned in these XI's is nothing short of criminal he's literally the only player on the same level as Zidane during they're playing days
People dont understand how good he was, the technique,speed, power and overall skill. Could shot with his left could shot with his right. Could pass up 3 guys in the dribble. Knew how to attack space. Unbelievable player and imo best midfielder of all time
Shocking not seeing petr cech mentioned honestly. By far a better goalkeeper in its own sense than Iker C.
What kind of mad man put busquets before Pirlo...
