Under appreciated by young fans?(under 20 or so)
I’ve noticed some young (Ronaldo) fans who call Henry a “Pace Merchant” or that he only had pace and was a average striker etc… usually between the ages of 10-13/14
Is Thierry Henry becoming under rated recently? Or is this just noise from CR7 or Tottenham Fanboys.
FIFA has ruined younger peoples perception of football.
Young guys in my work constantly wondering how Haaland can lose a foot race against defender X
“He must be injured or something”
Because in fifa he’s got 999 pace… and you can see the fifa wheels spinning in Their mind
Same reason you get younger fans thinking Zidane was shit and Cruyff was better because he had better technique…
coming from 17/18 year olds who never seen either play.
Ps. Not saying Cruyff was shit, just them talking about it as if they had any clue, I only seen Zidane but he’s my personal goat.
