VfL Bochum history

Every VfL Bochum season 442ball holds a table for, newest first. Our record starts in 2010 and is thinner before 2014, so this is what we hold rather than the club's complete history.

League finishes

League seasons only, newest last. Cup group stages are left out: a place in a group of four is not a finish in a league. Each point links to that season's table.

A position in a group stage is a position within that group, not a finish in the competition. Seasons still being played are marked.

Picked from every finished match we hold: 450 minutes or more, ranked on match rating weighted by minutes, with each player in the position he played most that season. Every season is shown in a 4-4-2, whatever shape the players actually played in. We do not derive formation from the team sheets. Per-player figures begin in 2015, so seasons before that have no team of the season.

Each club's own leaders for that season, not the competition's. A player who moved mid-season counts only what they did here. Clean sheets are counted for goalkeepers who played.
