Yeah you're right on some of that mate. Footballers in general now are more coached and athletic. I was saying this today - even Brasil is more European in style and more regimented. Maybe it's with increasing capitalism in the world and increasing money in the game even the areas with fewer resources have to somehow conform to a more Western European style of football.
Birdy will be all over this but it does feel like there's less magic in the game.
Yeah the reason is definitely the increasing capitalism
We see rarely magic these days, from teams and from a single player
even if our team looses 0-5 but we had the chance to see this unbelievable skill from Cristiano live in the stadium we would still go with a smile to home, the defender needed probably menthal therapy after getting humilated like this
these times are unfortunately over *cry*
