Aston Villa are bigger than Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham and Everton, according to Dean Saunders

Aston Villa are a bigger club that Chelsea, Manchester City, Tottenham and Everton, according to former striker Dean Saunders.

Villa have endured a tough few years having been relegated from the Premier League and now struggling in the bottom half of the Championship – but that has not stopped Saunders from making his bold claim.

Villa have a rich history having won the European Cup in 1982 as well as seven top division titles, seven FA Cups and five League Cups.
