I was watching some all-time XI’s by former footballers and analysists and was asking to myself: “Did football start in the 90’s for these people?”
I understand that people will always be biased towards the players that they got to experience and have an attachment to, but do you think that players from the old era like Eusebio, Rivera, Meazza, Di Stefano, Etc… are underrated compared to modern legends?
It’s like comparing composers across different music eras. You can’t. They were what they were in their particular context, and modern players play the way they do because it’s what’s done nowadays.
