I dislike them as much, if not more than you do, but to say they are not a huge club is simply wrong.
Anyways, I'm bored of repeating myself, keep telling yourself you are right, I'm sure you will agree some time.
It's all a matter of opinion. My opinion of Arsenal is that they are a club that had a very rich patch where they were considered 'big' but are now a spent force. They are not, nor have they ever been huge.
Huge clubs win things regularly.
Huge clubs win the Champions League (or at least reach the final more than once).
Huge clubs do not sell their best best players to clus they consider to be rivals and replace them with inferior ones.
Huge clubs don't settle for finishing 4th.
There are really only 4 'huge' clubs; Real, Barcelona, Bayern and sadly the Rags
After that (at this current moment) you have Us, Chelsea, PSG, Dortmund and Juventus* that are big clubs who have a realistic chance of breaking into that 'huge' club group.
*Juventus could possibly still be considered huge.
Back on topic I was talking to a spurs fan the other night when it dawned on me that even though I hated Spurs (due to that FA Cup 1/4 final defeat at Maine Road) I had always been able to hold a decent conversation with them about football. Arsenal fans just tend to be 'cants' who sneer, call your club classless and talk about history.
