Man Utd, Bayern, Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona and AC Milan are giants of world football Chelsea, Man City and Arsenal have a long way to go before they can be talked about being giants |

Ajax are not a giant of the game, a fantastic feeder club that has introduced some of the worlds finest players to boot. They dont have the finance or fan base to be a giant. |

Out of interest, what is the criteria a club has to achieve to be considered a Giant? Would people say its finance? Trophies? Support? all three? If so, can it be measured? ie how much of all three makes a club a Giant or is it just a matter of opinion....which it seems it is? |
Will be keeping Cech in my pocket for the next 3 months. Thanks Pedro

It is a mixture of all three & the journey taken to achieve what they have & yes it can be measured |
