Have to agree with that.

Zero evidence to even suggest that they are massive.

Old maybe. Traditional maybe. Well established maybe. Definitely not ‘massive’!

They were part of the "big 5" that led to the formation of the Premier League. They are one of only 6 clubs that have played every season of that league. They have over 100 seasons of top division football (a record). They're moving to a 52,000 seater stadium. They've won the league 9 times which puts them in 4th place of most top-flight championships. OK, so they're in a slump, but it's hard to win championships when other, richer clubs are dominating. Ask Liverpool.

Anyway, quite plainly far from "bang-average".

Blackburn, Huddersfield and Preston have won the league more times than Tottenham. Does that make them bigger clubs?

Sunderland are 6th in that list.

All of the above have also won the FA Cup a few times too.

If you are younger than 30 years old Everton are probably seen in a very different light to those who grew up during the 80’s and 90’s.

I was a an Everton fan when I was younger as well, when they had the NEC old logo shirt with zig zags on the sleeve.

I just think that “massive” describes Lpool, Man U, Man C, Arsenal and maybe Chelsea and Spurs to a lesser extent.

Arguably, due to the wealth of the premier league, any team who has more than 10 years at that level are a massive club. That's not enough to make Everton an attractive prospect though.

I never said they were "massive". But that could quickly change with the right investment and management. (would Man City be considered "massive" 10 years ago?) My initial point was that they're big enough for Pochettino. And latterly that they're not a "bang average" club.
