Message: [QUOTE="johnny plath, post: 2996336, member: 8689"] i think thst over simplifies the reality of that era though. Sure those players and others not named were great footballers but among their peers in relevant terms they were also among the nsturally strongest or fastest playing the game. Though smaller now in comparison, those playing at top level were big humans compared to general society of the time (obviously with some exceptions)...but to be small and make it to the top you had to be an exceptional footballer....you couldnt just be small and average. In reality if those players you mentined played now they'd still be the cream but they would be bigger and faster because they train differentky...but they would still be among the cream of there peers because of there superior natural attributes relatively speaking. I don't buy the dribble that modern players are just robots...ffs yiu still have to know how to play and have skill as well as natural physical attributes. [/QUOTE]
