The term ‘big club’ is given to a wide variety of clubs these days and opinions vary an awful lot on what makes a club bigger and better than any other, so I decided to take it upon myself to voice my own opinion on what makes a club ‘BIG’.
Silverware?
Silverware is no doubt a very important and meaningful statistic in football, but does it really decide which club is bigger than the other? I personally think no. If silverware (including historic success) decided the size of a club, then surely Leicester City would be considered bigger than numerous clubs in football today? From what I see fans across the globe use their title success (not taking away from the fact it was mission impossible) to back up their opinion on silverware making the size of a club better than any other. It is also mentioned fairly frequently that clubs such a Liverpool and Arsenal are no longer ‘big’ because, well, “what have they won in the past 10-15 years. So to put it plain and simple, no. I do not think silverware defines a ‘big club’.

The Players?
For sure, some clubs around Europe have some of the biggest and most popular talents in world football, but do the players on the pitch really define a club’s size? We see them come and go, whether they play for the shirt or for their prima donna egos. I certainly think that no player is bigger than any club and they do certainly not make a club’s size differ depending on their popularity and talent. One player who certainly fits the bill in that description is Tottenham Hostpur midifielder Moussa Sissoko. Last season, the Frenchman was undeniably a large factor into Newcastle’s fall down to the Championship. His performances on the pitch did not fill the Toon Faithful with joy and excitement, but more disappointment and anger, however it was his antics off the field that angered the fan base, as in many interviews over the Summer during the transfer window, he expressed his desire to leave Tyneside in search of Premier League & Champions League football.
Despite having that ‘rotten attitude’ he has been known to have over the past few years, he finally managed to seal a move to fit his profound qualities in Tottenham, although it is safe to say that his time in North London has not been as he thought. The midfielder has consistently been benched by Pochettino and has not particularly impressed when given a chance. Not only that, but since his departure, Newcastle have finally rewarded their loyal fans with what they deserve, in a young, hungry and passionate squad, which is no doubt leading them back to the Premier League; and remember, “It’s not about the name on the back of the shirt, but more the badge on the front.”

The Fans?
Finally, the fans. One category that seems to go under the radar is the backing of the fans for the club they love. Personally, I believe that what makes a club ‘big’ is the fans themselves. The reason for this is that, without the fans, the club is nothing. The fans ARE the club. Once, a great in the name of Sir Bobby Robson was once quoted on what a club truly is. It spoke volumes on how much the fans give to the club without the credibility most of them deserve. They stick with their side through thick and thin, through the biting cold of the winter and the sweltering heat in the Summer.
The fans are the ones who pay to go through the turnstiles and support their team no matter the results, they are the ones who pay for shirts, mugs etc to fund the club. Their wages, provide for new players to come and for others to leave. A club without any fans would not be anything, and what would be the purpose of that club then? Nothing. It may as well not exist. As stated before, players come and go, as do managers, but the fans stick by that club through everything and that is what makes a football club great. The fans. The size of the fan base, the better, and the size of the fan base, the bigger the club itself in my personal opinion.

So yes, to summarise I believe that it is the fans themselves that make a ‘big club’. As without them, the club would be nothing.

oga Villa has more EPL than Chelsea and equal number of UCL, even they have more world titles than Chelsea, hence more successful, after all your fellow shekpe fan said one gold in Olympics is more than 20 bronze medals. After Villa you have Nothingham Forest to overtake before coming for the big boys Liverpool and United.

Odunharry:

Aston Villa has UCL and other trophies you mention aside EPL

hensben:
I'm a football fan before been a club fan unlike you.

Lordemperoris100:
Naso Naso..

Manure fans eh..


I don't av time to argue here.

until u hit 33 EPL titles

12 UCL

then come and debate with me good luck

hensben:
It is not easy to do, only SAF got that type of favor because he's British, he was like a pride to the British among world coaches seeing that others were average, so they(English FA and ref) did everything humanly possible to kept him relevant till he retired.

donjazet:




CHELSEA HAS MORE TROPHIES THAN ASTON VILLA. You guys should stop misyarning.

ChristineC:
Sir Alex Ferguson met Chelsea three times in the UCL and won all three, was it the English FA ensuring he stayed relevant too?

PietroRico:
at least, you haven't forgotten your level

If you like wax stronger from now till my first great Grand son is old enough father children, you still won't be a big as either United or Madrid

Odunharry:

I believe you closed your eyes and type when u mention Villa don't have the UCL.
Aston villa has won UCL sAme as Chekpe fc but haven't clinched the EPL title before.

Now who's misyarning or saying what he doesn't know?

Odunharry:

I believe you closed your eyes and type when u mention Villa don't have the UCL.

hensben:
chelsea is far more bigger and better than Aston villa and they are a better team than manure currently.

Odunharry:

Chaii.. i don't want to argue abt Villa and Chekpe.

I quoted Donjazet to correct him when he said Villa dont have a UCL.

Go and meet capitacee and argue Villa and Chekpe.

hensben:
Real Madrid is far more bigger than manure..currently bChelse fc is better than manure.

My friend what are your criteria? Man United is bigger than Madrid in terms of wealth, global reach and acceptance, most viewers, newspapers and sports sites want to publish news about them because it generates more clicks and downloads, United fans globally is bigger than that of Madrid, and Bayern combined. And have won a competitive number of trophies highest in a big football league like England, Hence a bigger club. The only criterion Madrid thumps United is in trophies, which is important though but putting Chelsea and Aston Villa in perspective you should rearrange your philosophy

CapitalCee:

That's your opinion bro,no credible football site has ranked Madrid as the greatest, most successful yes but for the love of God Man United is bigger than Madrid since they are wealthier, has more than double of number of fans, greater global acceptance, more watched and even trophy-wise are not push ovees which Team has not been competing in the highest level constantly, 3 years ago Man u were in the CL quarter finals Chelsea were in the semis that same year. From 2004- 2010 Madrid did not make it pass the round of 16. Barcelona did not qualify for champions league in 2004 when Ronaldinho won the ballon dor. Bayern were eliminated by Zenith in 2008 UEFA cup one day after united eliminated Barcelona enroute winning the UCL in Moscow. Every team has a period they don't compete at the highest level. If you say more trophies I accept it, but BIGGER? Haba! How ? Athletico Madrid and Dortmund competes in the highest level currently more than AC Milan, but the San Siro club is Far more bigger than the 2. A big club is one which can pull the highest number of fans, viewers, sponsors, global appeal and still compete in the highest level from generation to generation which is what Madrid, Bayern, Barcelona, United, Liverpool, Juventus, Acmilan and may be Inter Milan are. realmadrid is more successful than United in trophies won but not a Bigger Football club

Chai!!!! Chelsea

U ve been spewing this crap for quite some time now. It still hasn't made u any more relevant or any less stupíd!!

ChristineC:
what do you really mean by this bulls you always type?

Leyqute:


My thoughts exactly. He knows he won't find it easy in England as there are many pacy wingers ready to punish him for his trademark overlapping.

I sha pity apari. He has lost most of his defenders and hasn't replaced them. Instead he's made signing a midfielder and a goalkeeper his priority.

Ramdeuter for your own good, send a letter to your Lord and Saviour Pep Guardiola to do the needful before the window closes. You go hear am o

So cos Al alhy is Africa or some club not among Europe Top 5 league they shouldn't be talked about!?
Do you know Al alhy and Barcelona are tied on 22 Intl trophies? (Continental success etc)

Ucl is Europe elite club competition, so those who have won For Africa, Asia, N. America etc should throw theirs away?
CAF and the rest club competition are they not also regarded as the Top flight trophy in their respective continents?

So Sevilla, FC Porto, Dortmund, PSG are all bigger than United ee Kwa,? This guy sef

raumdeuter:
LMAO

Man Utd claiming they are greater than Madrid.

Godstraight:
man u is not even bigger than barca talkless of Madrid,prestige and level una nor reach them

raumdeuter:


All the EPL teams Alves faced at Sevilla, Barca etc didnt they have pacey wingers?
Guardiola is trading his old full backs and looking for younger ones. I have said that as far back as last season

Man City are reducing the age of the team.

Jesus Navas for Bernado Silva
Cabalero for Ederson

2 players over 30 for 2 players under 25

sinizia:

Guardiola wanted sign Alves despite his old age but PSG offered more tempting wage and longer contract (2 years) than City and Alves ditched City for PSG. Guardiola sold those players because they're not good enough not coz of their age excuse you're bringing up. If it's coz of their age Guardiola wouldn't thought of signing him.

donjazet:


PERFORMANCE RELATED. YES. those teams have won more and performed better than united in the last 5 years.
