== Most Successful Club? ==


== Semi-protected edit request on 26 February 2020 ==
I think there should be further debate about what constitutes success in terms of trophies. At the moment the club which is considered the most successful according to wikipedia is Manchester United because they have won a few more trophies than liverpool; according to the article 'Football records in England' they have won 60 trophies compared to Liverpool's 58. Yes they have won more trophies than Liverpool - However not all trophies are of equal value and the fact that Liverpool has won two more champions leagues than Man U (easily the most prestigious trophy in club football) should be recognised when talking about the clubs in terms of success. Every football fan knows that one champions league is worth ten FA cups or a few league titles, so shouldn't this factor be taken into account when deciding which club is the most successful. Under the current system a club could win the league cup 61 times and be the most successful club in England according to the current system and that is frankly indicative of a flawed system.

:I agree that certain trophies are more prestigious than others, but it would be very dificult to quantify them. How do you know if one Champions League equals ten FA cups, why not nine, or eight. And the fact the trophies have been won over such a long period of time, the competition formats have changed considerably a la Champions League/European Cup and First Division/Premier League. ] (]) 14:17, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
