We play with the Roma of England, the possibilities are there
My opinion but I think we are better than Roma. We're a bit more like an aspiring Atletico Madrid on the balance of things. I won't blame this fan for not sharing my opinion of following us closely obviously though.
Think the Roma comparison is very fair. Their last trophy came in the same season as ours (07-08), but like us they've also been top 2/3 regulars in their domestic league for the last few seasons. The overall honours list is pretty similar too - they have three league titles to our two, they have 9 Coppa Italias to our 8 FA Cups. We have the edge on them in total European trophies, however our last was in 1984 and they've played in two finals since then as well as reaching the CL semis last year.
Atletico? I doubt you'll find many who see us on their level....
