Belgium vs Holland (soccer) Tonight!!!

<< < (4/6) > >>

Joachim:
"the fifties were Di Stefano's decade, the sixties Pele's, the seventies Cruyff and the eighties Maradona's. Whether one agrees with that or not it is clear the nineties have no such king of the game" - Johan Cruyff.

Completely off topic, but agree or disagree?

Joachim:
lol I should've seen it coming.

Jay ay Beee:
Seriously tho, if it ain't Phil Neville....

I think the demands of the modern day are much greater.  Players playing as much as they do for their clubs, find it very difficult to perform internationally.
Look at the French, Spanish, English, Italian etc. teams in the last world cup.  Most were all knackered.  

If you had to name one player it would probably be Zidane, because he's won the World Cup, European Championship, and European Cup, and not just by being part of a good team, by actually controlling the play.  

Just realised he won the European Championship and European Cup in the 21st century. lol

Jay ay Beee:
Also, Pele dominating the sixties?

Nobody saw him for Santos, and he left the '62 and '66 World Cups early on.
