Don't agree with this. Those names sound so much better through nostalgia.Globally footballers are shitter now than they were 20+ odd years ago. You can name 5/6 genuenly great current players. Back then there were loads, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Figo, Zidane, Del Piero, Totti, Batistuta, Klivert, Raul etc etc
Now the game is played at a much quicker pace . Watch them old games, often those players had so much time.
Has the game lost the mavericks through its increased pace and intensity? Maybe. But in twenty years time the next generation will be racing about. Messi, Ronaldo, De Bruyne, Mbappe, Vinicius Jnr, Kane Naymar, Salah, Musiala and others.
