The biggest club in the world.
When you’re drawing up the list it’s hard to argue that Manchester United are in the top two or three clubs on the planet.
Fans, stadium, players and history all combine to make Old Trafford and everyone associated with it one of the best known and world famous football brands in the world.
And you’d have to say that anyone who plays for the club has found themselves in a pretty sweet postion.
But that idea has been challenged by Thiago Silva who feels that Angel Di Maria, who’s set to exit Manchester, is leaving for greener and richer pastures in Paris.
“I think that people now need to respect PSG as a club, and our position as one of the big clubs in Europe. Real Madrid and Barcelona are probably on another level, but after that if you are joining PSG it means you are probably taking a step up.”
“We went further than any English clubs in Europe last year – even beating the English champions.”
“Every season we keep our best players despite much interest, and always add the best players in Europe. How many clubs can say that? The vision our owners have for this club is very clear, and that is forPSG to be the best.”
Naturally not everyone agrees
