Both Southampton and Everton are in the Premier League at the moment.
Matt Le Tissier has suggested on social networking site Twitter that Southampton are a bigger club than Everton at the moment.
Both Southampton and Everton are currently playing in the Premier League, but the former appear to be on the up.
While the Saints finished sixth in the league table this past season, the Toffees ended up as low as 11th in the standings.
This means that Southampton will feature in the group stage of the Europa League during the 2016-17 campaign.
Southampton legend Le Tissier has suggested on Twitter to a couple of Everton fans that observers should look at the current state of the Saints and Everton rather than at past history.
Southampton manager Ronald Koeman has been linked with a move to Everton this summer.
According to a recent report in The Sun, Everton hope that their offer of £6 million per year will see Koeman take the managerial job at Goodison Park by next week.
The Toffees are without a managerial job at the moment following the departure of Roberto Martinez just before the end of the 2015-16 season.
