Stephen Gerrard

 

Gerrard is no doubt one of the finest footballers to ever grace the Premier League however for all the magic he created with his feet he actually never won the Premier League title pretty unlucky right but what's even youth ranks of Bayern Munich to join more unfortunate was the 2013-2014 League season you see with just a few games left in that season Liverpool were top of the league and looked like they were going to steal it but his Infamous slip against Chelsea in an all-important game basically cost them the title and ultimately Liverpool never actually came that close to winning the title in the next few years so when he retired in he did so without a league medal.

 Irwin Hargreaves

 

Hargreaves at some point was seen as the next big thing and an England starter for many years to cum he seemed to be living up to the hype when he rose through Manchester United a winner of England's best player of the 2006 World Cup Tournament joining one of the best teams in club football how bad could it get well pretty bad the move soon turned out to be a disaster as Hargreaves was played by one injury after the other in four years at Manchester United he made just 27 appearances at a point missing out due to an injury for 777 days in his comeback match after the injury he limped off after just six minutes he would later join Manchester City in 2012.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic

 

Ibrahimovic may be remembered for many things but the Champions League trophy is the one that saluded him throughout his career his case may as well be a case of being at the right place at the wrong time as his story suggests Ibrahimovic departed into  Milan for Barcelona in the 2009-2010 season Inter Milan lifted the Champions League in the same season bad luck it was not the end though as Ibrahimovic soon left Barcelona to join AC Milan and instantly Barcelona lifted the Champions League leaving Ibrahimovic without Europe's Most coveted trophy.
