idk if all these italian sovl players would make it today desu senpai
completely different game innitRonaldo 9 wouldn't make it today eitherRonaldinho doing those tricks against modern pressing teams? no chance at all
>>142264668thisif Ronaldo "Fenomeno" was born today he would have just been called Ronaldo and stayed at Cruzeiro his entire career. he was Fred tier but people just have nostalgia goggles.
>>142264668>>142264839You're both totally wrong. Ronaldo was a beast. And Ronaldinho did a lot more than those tricks. Plus if Neymar and Vinicius could/can, let alone Ronaldinho.
>>142264963Neymar is a bitchmade loser
The level of football has gone down. These players would be even greater today.
>>142264668>>142264839kekyou can even go back to Beckenbauer and he would completely mog these frauds today
>>142264963You're wrong Juanito. There's no way any player before 2010 could keep up with today's athletic monsters and tactical geniuses. They simply don't have the stamina for the catenaccio gegenpressing hybrid of today's game, unlike plumberball of pre-Pep era
>>142264839As Jordan said they were great without the guys who came after them and learned from the old greats
>>142264548People overstate how much change there has been.Maldini played very well against young C. Ronaldo.Pirlo, Buffon etc. got to the UCL final in the era of Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar etc. Chiellini won the Euros just three years ago.Furthermore, if Baresi could play with Maldini and Maldini could play against Ronaldo, why couldn't Baresi play against Ronaldo? He would just have to adapt somewhat.What changed most of all was the tactics and athleticism, that's it. Both of these can be easily learned/trained.
>>142264668this is the redpill but it makes nostalgiababbies seethe every time
>>142265037this>>142265085what the fuck are you even saying? that bellingham is better than rooney? vinicius better than ronaldo? modric better than cruyff? it's just nonsense, a talent would be great in any era
>>142264839Pele was scoring blooters from his weak foot in brick boots. The way there were playing football was a bit suspect in the sense that it was very static, not much running but they def had the skills (they were already doing elastico and shit back then).So, you can bet superstars from the 90s and 2000s would walk in today's teams. Tbh I feel like we are in a very weak era. Just take a look at the teams currently in this euro, everyone is far away from their peak.
>>142265085>>142264668>>142264839>>142265211if they would play today they would be trained like player's of today. so stop coping
>>142265759yeah, Pele had insane athletic stats
>>142265365Now just imagine how many own goals Maldini, Puyol or Baresi would have scored under such intense pressure
>>142265819I think you take a 15 years old Pelé and put him in the academy of a top tier european club in Europe and he goes on to have a great career. They are gonna put him on a top tier PED/diet plan.
>>142265851Puyol is not a modern player?
>>142264839Contemporary football has 35-40 year olds playing still because zoomers are so fragile

>>142264548just let us rest on or laurels okay
>>142264548>call it.
