5 great footballers who have never won any major trophies

#1 Bernd Schneider

Schneider is one of the best Leverkusen players

The 'White Brazilian' was one of the most influential and hard working players of his generation, as he is responsible for some of the most important assists for any team that he has played for.

Schneider's tenure with Bayer Leverkusen has been something that nobody can ever forget, as with 5 runner-up spots on 3 of the biggest competitions in Europe, he is one of those passionate football players who never won a major trophy.

It is only a surprise that the 'provider of goals' was never able to put his hands on a piece of silverware, as his run in the Champions League back in 2002, where he provided more assists than any other player made us all believe in that Leverkusen was going to be taking the title home, defeating Real Madrid.

However, the German hasn't had anything more than the UEFA Champions League top assist provider award and a few runner-up medals.
