Would you say that soccer in general has improved over the last 10-20 years? Are we in the best time period of the sport?

Soccer is more technical and faster than ever

The best time period in football was in the 50's there's no question about it. The golden age ended in 65', after that it all went to shit

Soccer is more gay and blacker than ever

It's improved in every aspect except for one, fun. There's very little room for expression and magic in the top divisions of football anymore, it's all autistic stat fagging and "muh incredible system that requires everyone to play like a robot".

For me it was Real vs Corinthians in whatever year that was. That galacticos team was pure kino, it was like an assembled fantasy PES team

Yep. Football from the 80s looks like a bunch of slow drunkards in comparison to today. Defending back in the old days used to be "defender tries to stop attacker" instead of team tactics not letting attackers room to breathe

sorry, are you implying that argentine influence is more pervasive than at any point in history?

Just in general everything on the planet has been in steady decline since like 2007ish

Everything changed in 2007, even footy. 2007 was the year Messi and Cristiano took over the old school players like Zidane - Ronaldo and co.

I like nu-football desu

I wasn't being obvious enough?

Fun is a buzz word

>and thats a good thing

>Are we in the best time period of the sport?
That is objectively the mid 2000s. Every top club had a chance to win the CL, you never knew who'd be the favourites instead of the "who can stop Barca-Bayern-Real" shitfest we have today. Luckily we are leaving this era too now with Ronaldo and Messi getting older and Bayern sucking ass

every national side had one or tow world class players also

I'm a dumb American m8 I need to be spoonfed

Players aren't even allowed to take their shirts off after scoring anymore because of muh sponsors, nobody can say anything controversial because they'll get fined, everyone is media trained.

This is just nostalgia desu, Milan was always the contender and reached the finals every other season

Zoomerball may have a higher quantity of goals but isn't better quality-wise because it lacks nuance and technique. Note how every CL winning team so far have had a good playmaking midfield and how a pacebabby dominated team has STILL yet to win CL.

Also see City breaking PL point record but still can't win CL, etc.

More like shovel fed, ya fat bastard

No the only thing it's about is money. And that's exactly the reason soccer is ruined.

No, football died when tiki taka came around and never recovered.
