Having a debate with an Italian guy about who is the bigger club and I think it’s close.

Both have won their domestic league 19 times and Milan have 1 more Champions League.

Milan probably have more well known legends like Van Basten, Kaka, Maldini, Gullit and Pirlo. But in recent years Liverpool have had Gerrard, Suarez, Alonso, VVD and Salah.

The current popularity of the Premier League helps Liverpool but Milan also has a huge fanbase.

    I said in our subreddit but: since berlusconi bought milan, not one Liverpool player will go into a combined 11 of the two teams.

    I have some idiots try and say vvd is close to baresi and my brain explodes.

      Not sure when that was but even if we say last 20 years or so, off the top of my head Suarez does 100% and probably Alisson. There’s arguments for Van Dijk, Salah and Gerrard.
