Seen that. worthyfeck them, they are uninspiring anyway. Especially Garay. Better to see Thiago doing this in a pass distributed by De Gea

We are bigger . By almost every conceivable measure.Anyone who believes we are significantly bigger than Juventus needs a reality check.
From a fan base point of view we most certainly are. On footballing terms and history, not so much.Anyone who believes we are significantly bigger than Juventus needs a reality check.

Dunno, the Alves cross surely.What's so good about that?
They have more important trophies than us and historically have had arguably better players. I know that only about a decade ago only Real was considered bigger than Juve. I don't think that money is the most important factor about which club has the biggest dick. Don't know about the fan base, they have a very big one too. Not that much difference IMO.We are worth over 4 times what Juve are, have twice as much annual revenue, and a significantly larger fan base.
Are we separating the team/club definitions here? They had star players, far more than we had at the time, but bigger club? Not for me.We're bigger, but in brand sense. Football wise I don't think many aficionados would see a significant gulf. They're as big in Italy as we are here (if not bigger) and though we've won more ECs, they've been in more finals. I'd say we're in a tier together, but we're the more marketable name.
When we met in 97, they were the bigger team.
Well in what sense do you mean bigger? We couldn't have rested on our Busby laurels forever claiming we were one of the biggest clubs. At that point we hadn't made significant inroads in Europe (ECC aside) for 30 years.Are we separating the team/club definitions here?

...What was Thiago shopped out of? I can't keep up with this thread.
Barça's instagram account just posted a cropped image (Cutting out Thiago) of the key players in the new kits. Can't be a coincidence

This. Take it elsewhere please!Oh, so we've moved from Pogba to who the bigger team is out of us and Juventus. Brilliant.
Garay.The info we were passed is that Manchester United have booked in one player for a medical in the coming days and it is believed that player is Thiago.
I can't make up my mind if they are worse than their last season's away kit or not.maybe he is running away so that he doesn't have to wear those shit away kits
I never considered United bigger than Liverpool. I think that we are similar in club stature, and because we have been more successful in last 15-20 years we are no bigger. Also, if we fail in next decade and them do better, they are no bigger. I think that which clubs is bigger is more complex than the fan base and the net worth.So do Liverpool, but few would argue they are bigger than us. The perception of how big a club is these days is largely based on global fan base and net worth. Plus Juve's stature has faded somewhat with Serie-A's demise as one of the big Euro leagues.
You are kidding right?What's so good about that?
We were one of the biggest clubs mockney. I think generally, fanbase and commercial acumen are two factors that determine the "size" of a club and its hard to argue that we weren't successful in obtaining either of them, even then.Well in what sense do you mean bigger? We couldn't have rested on our Busby laurels forever claiming we were one of the biggest clubs. At that point we hadn't made significant inroads in Europe (ECC aside) for 30 years.
Before we'd won a modern era Champions League, and whilst the PL was still in the process of becoming the powerhouse it is now (compared to Seria A at the time, which had been top dog for a while, and entirely post Heysel) we weren't considered "as" big of a club as we are now.
It was still at a mid-way point between a dormant, Benfica like legendary club, and the modern super-club we are now.
Or at least that was my impression of it. It was a huge deal to beat them in the group stages. Something now only the Celtic's of this world crow about.
What's so good about that?

First page...What's the point in threads like these. It will never ever happen. Ever.
Apparently it's of average quality.what's the story with the restaurant?
Yeh. I can do that easily, when there's no pressure at all from defenders.What's so good about that?
He's sold it to come and run Red Cafe (the one at Old Trafford).what's the story with the restaurant?
Not at all, I've seen loads of players do that, I could do it to some extentI'm pretty sure Vanthaman was joking people.
