About This Dataset

English Top-Flight Football Titles by Club
This chart ranks English clubs by top-flight league titles won, combining the old First Division with the Premier League era that began in 1992. It covers the full history of English league football since 1888.
Analysis

Liverpool and Manchester United are tied at the top with 20 titles each, but they won them in almost opposite eras: Liverpool took 18 of theirs before 1991, while Manchester United won 13 of theirs after the Premier League began in 1992. Arsenal sit third on 14, including a title in 2025-26. Manchester City's 10 titles tell the most compressed story on this list, with eight of them arriving since 2011-12, meaning City won more titles in roughly a decade than in their previous 130 years. The historic spread is wide, with Everton on nine and Aston Villa on seven, both accumulated largely before the modern era. Sheffield Wednesday's four titles all predate the Second World War.
