Like it or not, they're not just a big club, they're a massive club.... They own the media, they have a huge worldwide fanbase because people are mostly sheep wanting to be part of something, so they put on a Liverpool shirt and think other sheep will like them...or their old man was a Liverpool fan because he was a glory hunter as a kid... Most Liverpool fans don't even watch them regularly, but when there's a sniff of a trophy they come out from under that rock wearing the newest kit and whatever other merch they see...
No matter what Man City do over the next few years, they'll never get near Liverpool as a club.... They could win 10 Premier leagues in a row, but the one Liverpool then finally win will be a bigger deal in the media (and so the world) because Liverpool have the fanbase (and everyone can make money off it)
I never said they weren't a massive club - massive in the football market place, that is. I said they aren't a club that's been an elite one for a very long time...and two trophies that any elite club would want in 30 years underlines that they remain a club off the elite.
Selling millions of keyrings and duvet covers to gullible people does not make them a dominant force. They aren't and they'll find it hard getting there again. It involves - for a kick off - winning your own title MULTIPLE TIMES over a defined period. They aren't there.
