Milan has a bigger stadium, better known legends, play in an affluent city, and has great history and traditions.
Liverpool is worth billions more , has more fans, and is better on the pitch. They also have the history and traditions.
It's a tough question to answer.
I’m not sure where the “bigger legends” thing is coming from. Souness, Dalglish, Rush, Barnes, Hansen and Keegan are some of the best players to ever play in England.
Then there’s the semi-recent players like Gerrard, Carragher, Owen, Fowler, Suarez and Alonso who were all great players. Even more recent there’s Mane, Firmino and Coutinho who are some of the best to play in the Premier League. Currently there’s Alisson, Van Dijk and Salah who are all time greats.
I’m sure you could do a similar list for Milan and I’m not saying Liverpool’s legends are definitely “better”, but I don’t think the conversation can just be brushed under the carpet.
Sorry to burst your bubble but no kid nowadays has ever heard of souness, dalgish, rush, barnes, hansen and Keegan.
Barnes is one of the most influential black footballers of all time, if nothing else. Rush is Liverpool’s all time top scorer, Dalglish is a legend outside of football for his Hillsborough work and Souness is Britain’s greatest ever midfielder. If you haven’t heard of them then you need to brush up on your football history, or you’re just ignorant.
