My friend and I were debating who were the 3 biggest teams of all time- surely it’s Man united, Liverpool and Arsenal, in no particular order but in terms of trophies, global awareness and world class players who have played for these clubs. Please let me know if u disagree and argue another club should be there?
The very fact we are even talking about United in this company with the shower of S… football the club has served up in the last decade shows you why it’s the most supported club in world football, although I think you have to say nowadays the biggest 5 clubs in world football and that’s currently unquestionably Real Madrid, Barcelona, Man United, Liverpool and Bayern.
Go to South America it’s all Barca and Madrid, Go to Africa it’s all united, go to sub continent and Middle East it’s more even with all 5 clubs, but in south east Asia it’s dominated by Liverpool, Madrid and united shirts. North America is Madrid, Barca, Chelsea, Arsenal and united.
Genuine fans in the world, honestly United probably have more than any other club, but so many of those fans are dormant because they follow success and right now that club is an embarrassment to be mentioned in the same conversation as the others based on the last decade however the question is who are the biggest clubs historically?
