Very nice addition but I do not agree with that assumption.

One thing the current players have is the mad drive for success. These guys train almost round the clock. Look at the speed at which these guys recover from injury and how quickly to learn different systems of play.

When it comes to tricks, these current players like James Rodrigues, Vinicius, Adama Traore, Gabriel Jesus, Sane, Walker (pulled some mad tricks yesterday, I did not know he had them in his locker), Robertson, Lallana, Iwobi and a host of others have the skills. However, during play, they do not have the time on the ball to pull those tricks off.

Watch the last Chelsea and Manchester City game. It got to a point Kovacic was laughing at De Bruyne because every trick De Bruyne had, Kovacic stopped with brilliant positioning and reading of play. Kovacic was on De Bruyne for most part of the game.

The best way to excel in the modern system (which I see getting more intense with time) is with quick thinking and action. Just as we saw with Rodrigo yesterday.

Look at Ndidi of recent. He had to adapt because he was giving the ball away too much. Now he is getting faster with his decisions when he breaks up play or get the ball in tight spaces.

So, Maradona, Pele and Co would find it difficult to cope in this time because of having it difficult to do things with the ball, while the current players will have the tricks and quick decisions.
I observed something yesterday, I was enjoying my ps3 yesterday, but It was very difficult to break down my opponents, most of the time I pass the ball to "neymar" and hope to dribble the whole team... but when I started releasing ball asap, 1,2s, the players were running into spaces and I could finally lob the balls behind the defenders, or a tru ball, I started having some chances of my own...

It might be just a game after all, but the only way you can beat me in ps3 is if you think faster and can score with the few chances you'd get...

You can never in your real life or in your online life be like me.

You are an open advocate for double standard bigotry, exclusion and uphold the tenements of tribalism with your open discrimination.

Then add that to your continous consistent reliance on caustic diction, vitriolic rhetoric and abuse to get your befuddled point across. See your language in the bold so typical of you.

You rarely ever underpin your self-justified, self-birthed one sided views with facts and figures. Just subjective deductions.

When l was calling for Obagoal, Ighalo, Efe, Etebo and others l guess they were all born in Peckham London.

When challenged to substantiate your position you always EVADE your really a bully online but a coward in reality. Why you can never have a discussion without abuse and you never rely facts.

I don't know what you are but a honourable patriotic Nigerian you certainly are not.

Finally, perception is not FACT its your opinion.

And look at this redundant attempt at defamation, which we have come to know you for. This whole post is nothing but a delusional and demented attempt to save a battered and disgraced image. And to think that you are still here without any shame writing your typical beautiful nonsense.

You make claims and accusations you have nothing to back up with...if I say prove any of the accusations you made against me in that rubbish you typed you can't prove it and this is who we have come to know you for. You declared I am a coward in real life yet you don't know me...remember when I said you are demented ? Dementia is a medical condition suffered mostly by geriatric patients and you are not far off the mark!

You have been rebuffed and refuted with facts by young boys you are old enough to be their grandpa yet you have no shame. Yes, Supernerd is old enough to be your son yet he has used facts to slap you around like a little biitch. These guys beat , whip and slap you around yet you are still here trying to keep relevance.

One day you are from Peckham, next you studied in Enugu , next you be confirm Warri boy...you have no self worth nor esteem.

Precisely. You get this more in Fifa when you set the defending on legendary and you are up against a player who is good at zone press defending. Dribbling or holding the ball is next to impossible.

The only way out is to master quick passing and thinking. Making decisions with the ball and before the ball gets to your players.

Then the game becomes fun.

It is a replica of the scenario the current players face. Which make their skills less appreciated.

In the clip below. Watch Mahrez stature how there is virtually no fat on his body. Just plain muscles. Then he runs a marathon on the field and great first touch. He is also very skillful too.

At youth level, Solanke continued to score at a prolific rate scoring 15 goals in 16 games before Christmas and finishing as top scorer in the group stages of the UEFA Youth League after a hat trick in the final group stage match against Sporting CP.[7][8] On 10 April 2015, Solanke scored a brace in the semifinal of the 2014–15 UEFA Youth League against A.S. Roma to send Chelsea into the final.[9] Solanke scored again against Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Youth league final ending the tournament with 12 goals in 9 games as Chelsea won the title.[10] On 20 April, Solanke scored a late goal to give his side a 3–1 win in the first leg of the FA Youth Cup final against Manchester City.[11] With this goal, Solanke reached the 35-goal mark this season.[12] On 7 May, Solanke reached 41 goals for the season after scoring a hat-trick in a 4-3 victory over Liverpool U21.[13]

On 30 May 2015, Solanke clinched the only goal of the game in a post-season friendly against Thailand All-Stars, therefore scoring his first senior goal of his career.[14]

Next time your watching Mahrez play, watch the way he traps the ball repeatedly. No matter how hard of high the ball is. Check out skills by Marcelo and the way he traps ball too.

Yes Mahrez is one of the best in the world when it comes to ball trapping

In the modern game, the pressure on build up play and to make a throw is so intense now. Next time a Manchester City game is on, watch how difficult it is for the opposition to make throws.

Talk less of walking past defenders and scoring unbelievable goals.

It is far more difficult now. The defenders of the past were brash while the defenders now have intelligence.

Allnigeriasoccer.com can now reveal that the identity of the Danish Superliga club that failed in their bid to sign Nigeria U17 captain Samson Tijani.

FC Midtjylland were prepared to pay 600,000 euros for the services of Tijani but the central midfielder's camp turned down the offer with the hope that his transfer fee will skyrocket after the 2019 FIFA U17 World Cup.

Collins Edwin Sports Club have no control over Tijani and his father, Mr. Bashiru Tijani, is being forced to deal with Dotun Coker, who is the Chairman Technical Committee, Lagos Football Association.

Anything that must be done regarding transfer business has to pass through Dotun Coker, who is acting as a proxy for a Board Member of the Nigeria Football Federation.

After the U17 AFCON, a meeting was set up between Collins Edwin SC, Dotun, the NFF top shot, Samson Tijani and his family and during the meeting the NFF official threatened the midfielder that he would never play for the national teams again if he went against the wishes of Dotun.

Dotun later took Samson Tijani's father to the Nigerian Immigration Service to apply for an international passport and when the traveling document was issued, it was seized by the LSFA official, so that the father cannot travel abroad to discuss with foreign clubs without his knowledge.

Before the Golden Eaglets traveled to Brazil for the World Cup, the owner of Jossy United FC made an offer to Tijani's father too good to refuse.

He rented an apartment for Tijani's father, placed him on N100,000.00 monthly salary and his wife was to receive N50,000.00 monthly, and in return he got an exclusive parental consent.

In addition, the Jossy United owner facilitated the return of Tijani's sister to Nigeria from Oman, where she traveled to to work as a domestic help but had complained that she was regularly being 'abused' by her hosts.

Do you read how CR7 train for hours to maintain his fitness? What about the revolutionary diet those guys are on?

Those Brazilians will not even come close.

Look at some Pictures of Sane. This is not power-power body but high grade fitness.
TheGoodJoe, Forget it please. The Players of those generation are something else ooo.

And please forget about the Cocaine addiction by Maradona oo because there were much more better Players than himself.

After all, The growth hormone therapy MESSI had equally have some influence on him as well too.

Or how do you judge the Nigerian SE that attained a yet to be equalled nor surpassed 5th placement in the FIFA rankings till date inspite of the retinue of superstars that have been churned out since the 1994/95 generation across the length and width of the AFRICAN continent.

At least we watch them and can vouch for them and their prowess.

Too much rules nowadays have even killed the beautiful game of football with so much stoppages inhibiting the Free Flow of football.

@ TheSuperNerd, so much more about those Players you referenced and Left for me though, CR7 and MESSI wouldn't survive those days to a large extent in the face of injury because of the kinds of hard tackling in existence back then too.

So saying Players of yester years wouldn't cut in in the present days is debatable opinion absolutely

Zidane who i will not put at Maradona or Pele's level did stuff that seemed to be in slow motion but when you are the opposing player on the end of such display you will know what happened was no ordinary dribbling skill

glad you are ok. All that has been lost to this robbery attack will be gotten back tenfold in Jesus name

ChrisKels:
Not funny, I am still in shock and pains. I had my first robbery experience yesterday. I was driving home from a friend’s house at about 7:30pm when I got double crossed by one dirty looking Camry, along old airport road, Emene, I pulled over thinking it was SARS operatives, with their Berettas all pointing at me, dey demanded for my phone and car keys, I played to their tone maka ndu m, I submitted my Tecno Pouvoir2 pro LA7 that I just acquired last October(21st) wey I bn take dey do I makwa ndi anyi bu, dey ransacked my car and made off leaving me with no penny as dey also emptied my wallet.

Wetin pain me pass na one wey tinny like elyte89 come short like Charlesemeka wey collect my cap and brushed it across my face, using Andrew44's deep voice, he said to me ”u think say na u fresh pass for this hood nah"
