Madbadteacher Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 WM was/is incomparable in modern football. Puyol is more of a McLeish Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/3150-comparing-the-ecwc-team-with-todays-footballers/page/2/#findComment-90158

tlg1903 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 From what I have seen of weir there was a certain cruyffness about the way he beat men and distributed the ball. Nests isn't a bad shout for miller to be fair, he def had a bit of an Italian style wig regards to knowing when to make a tactical foul Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/3150-comparing-the-ecwc-team-with-todays-footballers/page/2/#findComment-90168

baggy89 Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Rougvie was hardly unique though. He was probably THE stereotypical 80s full back. An athlete with tree trunk legs who'd bomb about all day. Stuart Pearce, Viv Anderson, Mel Sterland, Gary Stevens types. I'd say there has been a move away from that type of fullback though the boy Ivanovic fae Chelsea is a possible. Black = Berbatov? I would have thought Jerome Boateng was a bit of a throw back to an '80s full back at least in stature and physicality.

TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted September 30, 2010 Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Miller - Baresi, as for a modern day player, Cannavaro? Quote Link to comment https://dev.donstalk.co.uk/topic/3150-comparing-the-ecwc-team-with-todays-footballers/page/2/#findComment-90181
Kowalski Posted September 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2010 Miller - Baresi, as for a modern day player, Cannavaro? Both good shouts. I'm surprised none of the younger fans have accused us all of being mad what with some of the names being compared, but the ECWC team were that good!

Guest ally s Posted October 1, 2010 Report Share Posted October 1, 2010 Miller - Baresi Interesting one. Gabriele Marcotti has stated on more than one occasion that Willie Miller was a better player than Baresi. I can see the comparison though.

I'm surprised none of the younger fans have accused us all of being mad what with some of the names being compared, but the ECWC team were that good! I thought yesterday that maybe we were overstating their worth and also it should be remembered that they were team, more than the sum of their parts. But in my eyes those parts, the Gothenburg Legends, are heroes and the these cunts from today couldn't hold a torch to them.
