I dont get this, why is nearly every single leading scorer from the new era?

Why is it never like „yeah he played in the 70s and is leading scorer off xyz“

You can check that, i am not talking bs, its hard to find a leading scorer that was in his prime between 1970-90

Why?

    I don’t really see how that is relevant, in a season now they would have still lost the league but by more points

      Exactly. That’s why there’s more impetus to score goals now. Teams drawing every week would get 50% of the points available, but now, they would only get 33% of available points. Therefore it is more important to win games (score goals) in the current era. Hence goalscoring records are all held my modern players.
