The van Gaal sacking was even more cruel when you consider that Woodward briefed the media that van Gaal was to be sacked irregardless of the final result. The embargo on that news was just after the final whistle so van Gaal enters the press conference smiling, only to be bombarded with questions about his imminent sacking.
The Laurent Blanc sacking was ridiculous I remember watching that thinking PSG were insane, and personally still think that. That PSG team was phenomenal under Laurent Blanc
How could you leave out Jupp Heynckes??? Won the champions league with Real in 97/98 & got sacked. The very season after Capello was sacked for winning the league…
This should definitely been on the list, espicially considering Real Madrid hadn't won the champions league in 32 years. I thought this would be the top spot.

Ancelotti.....finishing the year 2014 with four trophies. On 1 December 2014, Ancelotti was nominated as one of the three finalists for the 2014 FIFA World Coach of the Year Award. On 19 January 2015, Ancelotti was inducted into the Italian Football Hall of Fame and on 20 January 2015, he won the IFFHS 2014 Award as The World's Best Club Coach. Real Madrid finished the 2014-15 league season in second place with 92 points, two off treble-winning Barcelona and scoring a record 118 goals in the process. They were eliminated in the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey, and lost 3-2 on aggregate against Juventus in the Champions League semi-finals. On 25 May 2015, Real Madrid president Florentino Pérez announced that the club's board had taken "a very difficult decision" to relieve Ancelotti of his duties with immediate effect.
Can you do a documentary on the afc Wimbledon on the nine promotions in eleven years, how they’re a fan own club and how they have a stadium in plough lane now. The story of they lost the club, how the F A allowed that and won’t allow that anymore.
I'd love to see that and it would be right up Alfie's street. Maybe he has to convince Mr HITC that an hour long special would be worth the time and effort :)
Another similar case was the Brazilian Julio Cesar Leal, who was fired from Orlando Pirats after winning the four trophies disputed by the team in 2011, simply the most victorious season in the club's history.
Julio Leal won 2 trophies not 4...he won the MTN 8 vs Chiefs in 2011 and the Telkom Knockout vs Wits and was sacked in 2012 after Pirates lost in the Champions league qualifiers against a team from Angola
Another candidate is Sören Cratz. He won Hammarby IF our first ever piece of silverware when he brought us the Allsvenskan title in 2001 despite being tipped for relegation before the season. He was sacked because he didn't have the team play "attractive" enough football.
Jupp Heynckes sacked right after breaking Real Madrid's 32 years dry spell in UCL tops everything and HTCSevens leaves it out. Alfie never stop disappointing.
Blanc has to be the most unlucky coach to get sacked. The man won the treble and tbh if they werent as ruthless with them not taking a treble for granted he very well cpuld be still their as boss.
U r totally wrong about rafa . He was appointed on interim basis at Chelsea and was bound to leave club at the end of season , it had nothing to do with what he won during that spell .
Honourable mention: Skënder Gega. Guy won Partizani their first Albanian league title in 26 years and then got the sack because he was deemed "not experienced enough for European games". It bit them hard in the arse in the end as they had their arses whooped in both CL & EL qualifiers...
Ronnie Deila at Celtic won 2 leagues and a domestic cup, but got out put the cup by rangers on penalties in the semi final of the Scottish cup, after his sacking Celtic went on to win the league 4 weeks later. This was during the period rangers weren't in the top flight again yet, but still a bit of a dirty move.
You're wrong about Slavisa Jokanovic - he wasn't sacked by Watford. After winning them promotion from the Championship, he was offered a new contract but turned it down and left.
Hey love the videos and wanted to request a topic for one. Now Gareth Southgate has his new contract and is safe from the speculation of blurts like me, it might be the right time to ask... Was bringing on Marcus Rashford, who hadn't kicked a ball all tournament, to miss a penalty in the final of the euros, after England's long wait, the biggest managerial gaff of all time? Me and my friends are convinced it is. Hidden at first by the new England culture and optimism that grew in the tournament, then by the outpouring of racism and vitriol as the England fans reverted to type. But we don't know the runners up to compare it too. Would love to see you tackle this in your usual pragmatic and witty style. Thanks for the content keep the videos coming!
@HITC Sevens What would have happened if Neymar didnt leave Barca? Yea yea, what-ifs are silly and it might be a bit mainstream for this channel, buuuut... I'd argue Barca wouldnt be in financial ruins, Liverpool wouldnt have won the CL or the PL and Neymar would have won the Balon D'or at least once.

Great video Alfie!! how ungrateful are some owners really... a bit of constructive feedback pronunciation-wise: Vicente del Bosque is pronounced ViTHente or ViSente not Vinchente, he's not Italian, he's Spanish
@@bp3366 ah thank you very much! Over a year in remission, had a slight scare last week as I thought I found a lump but its since disappeared. Aside to that, thankfully all good.
Jardim at Monaco is the one that comes in mind. It was hilarious how they got rid of him, their 'Mecciah', Henry nearly got them relegated and they signed Jardim again soon after.
There have been a number of managers who have been sacked after just signing new deals. I wonder who has the most years being paid as a manager vs actual year managing? Mourinho must have double the years of contracted income than he’s actually managed for! A list?
Didn't Ancelotti get sacked after winning trophies at RM? I know RM would sack you if you don't play well, if you don't play well.. you'd need to win the CL & La Liga. If you play well but only win the CL or La Liga, you'll get sacked.
Interesting with Laurent Blanc there. He was absolutely awful here in Qatar with Al Rayyan, but always thought of him as a great manger. Now seeing that he spent a long time out of the job after PSG, probably got a good pay out and ironic he wound up in Qatar...
Lots of Chelsea links in this one, even at the beginning with Jokanovic, who was one of our players under Ranieri, who was also unlucky to get the push when you look at his results? And yes, I know he won nothing with us! However it was mainly his team that Mourinho adopted.
I disagree about Mourinho taking over Ranieri’s team.. Jose brought Ferreira and Carvalho over with him from Porto plus Robben, Tiago, Cech and of course Drogba were all added that season and played vital roles in our title win and run to CL semi final!!
I think it will be interesting if you make a video about the African SuperLeague project. It is supported and even initiated by CAF and FIFA unlike the equivalent in Europe.

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.
Great video Alfie, but you got the Chelsea bits wrong. - Rafa was always the Interim One at Chelsea. He was never meant to stay beyond the end of that season. - Sarri was nowhere close to the sack at Chelsea. We fans were unhappy about 2 things - "Sarriball" which even after 1 full season, we never really understood (remember the 6-1 mauling at City anyone?), and the blind preference of Jorginho over Fabregas. But hey, it won us a trophy 🤷🏻♀️. Had it not been for Juve buying him out, he would've remained at Chelsea.
Guardiola gets more credit for Spains titles than Bosque himself
Cuz he’s more social with the press than bosque and bosque won the euros and World Cup and isn’t in the same conversation as pep?
I think in part he took over Spain after they won the 2008 euros
The van Gaal sacking was even more cruel when you consider that Woodward briefed the media that van Gaal was to be sacked irregardless of the final result.

The first time I remember this happening was in 1977 when Man U sacked Tommy Docherty after winning the FA cup.
Ranieri was sacked by Leicester the season after winning the Premier league with them
