Indeed, but there is the reason nevertheless

"Super Club"? Would anyone say that Chelsea are a "super club" at this point?
Real Madrid virtually invented the CL, and have won innumerable Liga titles since the 50s. Barcelona not far behind. Idem. Bayern. That status takes not merely a few years, but decades. That, in short, is the answer.
That said, I don't think there'll be any more super clubs, if I've understood the term properly, in the English Premier League. There'll be no more domination on the scale that there was by Liverpool through the 70s and 80s, and United, through the 90s and noughties. Just not going to happen.
Chelsea are now a super club.
Huge fan base around the world now, European Cup winners trophy in the cabinet.
The only think missing with Chelsea is that up-and-coming state of the art 60k stadium.
Since Abramovich took over I don't think there has been a more successful team in England in regards to number of trophies won, albeit that may have changed with United winning the Europa League last night I am unsure.

Taking in Roberto's first full season until the end of MP's first season we won an FA Cup, 2 League titles, and a LC. Essentially 4 trophies in 4 years. Since then 3 seasons 1 LC.
What is a bit galling is that over that same time frame, one regarded as our best period ever, United seemingly on the decline have won 2 Leagues, an FA cup, a LC and a EL.
And that is why we are not a super club yet. We just haven't won enough. But we will.
Who regards the last three seasons as our best period ever?
Stop talking bollocks.
OK the first 4 then. We win 4 trophies to their 2. Satisfied. The two points I was trying to make is that being serial winners is not in our DNA although it looked like it might be in May 2014. Second point we have not kicked on when we should have.
