Arsenal v Leicester (13/08, 15:00 BST)

[Mac76]

At the moment calling us a big club is like calling United a big club

Newcastle have richer owners than us tbf

[HCZ_Reborn]

Not even about richest owners it’s about present achievement and status

Newcastle are not a big club, they will likely become one though

[Letters]

Haven’t won a title in 18 years and counting

Haven’t even appeared in Europe’s premier competition for five years

I’d say that’s a metric by which to say we aren’t a big club

I agree it’s subjective but having a reasonably big stadium and fan base isn’t really the criteria

Stadium size and fan base are part of the criteria, but so is history - and ours definitely makes us a big club.
Like it or not, Spurs are a big club - they were invited to join the European Super League ffs.
If it's just about current success then City are a bigger club than us, which they absolutely bloody aren't.

City are absolutely a bigger club than us!

If you want to make it about history, where do you draw the line? Leeds, Nottingham Forest, Aston Villa?

[Xhaka Can’t]

Depends on criteria you use.

If City were to lose their infinite cheat button and returned to their long term historical norm, would they come close to our attendances, Worldwide fan base, TV coverage and would they even be a consistent presence in the top flight?

If you think, infinite cheat is the measure, then yeah, you’re right. City is big. The biggest.

Bullshit.
And what Gary said.
And it’s not just about history, but it is a factor.
