Zatman Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Are they really the most successful club? If you count the 3 major trophies the league, FA Cup and European Cup and United have won more combined Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentVilla Posted October 24, 2014 Moderator Share Posted October 24, 2014 Liverpool have always struck me as a "small big club". And Anfield seems like such a crap little stadium for such a BIG club. Holds more than Chelsea. Whatever you say about Liverpool they are the most successful club in the history of British football. Actually, I'm not convinced that they are even though they have the most EC wins. Overall I believe Man United edge them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Nobody considers the FA Cup that important now. So if you take league titles and European wins they are well ahead of United. If you have to include the FA then you shoud include the league cup which would put them ahead of united overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overall they have won more trophies than anybody else, so how is that cooking the books. Not a Liverpool fan at all, just grew up with being the team to beat. Most people on here probably grew up with United being the team to beat. Edited October 24, 2014 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted October 24, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted October 24, 2014 What I love is that even some of our own fans joined in the Liverpool love in about how they're so entertaining and it would be great if they won it, but now there's been a massive climb down like it never ever happened. LOL. If it's between Chelsea, City and Liverpool winning it give me Liverpool any day unfortunately. If its between Liverpool and any of the other 91 football league clubs, I'd probably only choose Liverpool over SHA. I'd literally rather anybody else won it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll take the oil-inaires thanks. The day I want Liverpool to win the title is the day I totally give up on football.

I didn't say you were a Liverpool fan I said you almost sound like one and you do. You are setting the criteria by which you define who is the most successful in order to come up with the answer of Liverpool. I grew up in the same era but saying they have won more trophies than anybody else depends on how you choose to come up with the figures and which competitions you opt to exclude. If you take it across all competitions which seems the fairest way to do it then Man United are actually 2 ahead of Liverpool. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_football_clubs_in_England_by_major_honours_won Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 Looking back at the comments from Lawro and other Liverpool pundits saying Liverpool will be better off without Suarez is laughable now. It will be interesting to see when Sturridge returns whether he'll be even half the player without Suarez. He seemed just fine without Suarez last season.

At the time they were won it was a proper competition. Much like the UEFA cup was. Also, what I would give for The Villa to win one of these "not important" trophies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted October 25, 2014 VT Supporter Share Posted October 25, 2014 Dropping more points here, dear o dear! Good to see, they have been incredibly lucky these past few weeks picking up results where they haven't deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
