    exactly.

    Consider Johan Neeskens. He would protect his back four, boss the midfield, launch attacks and score goals. They were complete players. And hard. Fúcking hell they were hard.
    Perhaps the physical demands of modern football in terms of speed and so forth simply don't allow people to be that kind of footballer and last?

    There is no need to be rude. I was simply trying to save your family from the stench of the foul eructations which whistle past the broken, blackened stumps you laughingly call 'teeth'.

    I will share one with you from my managerial career and the challenges we face.

    Just last weekend, league game, I had taken off our striker as 1) he needed a rest and 2) he is a wee shíte. Anyhow I was getting him ready to come back on and suggested he play midfield, decent wee player. He said he would like to come and play – and here I quote – “CAM” not “CDM”.

    Naturally, as any of my peers would do, I turned away and urged another “Ben you’re going on in a second”.

    This may be an explanation b. You could well be right. It's impossible to compare eras, isn't it?

    Still. They were an impressive breed. The sight of Sounness bossing a midfield isn't easily forgotten.

    They've all grown up playing FIFA on their games machines, sw.

    I'm surprised you can actually get da yoot out of their bedrooms nowadays.
    “Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.”

    Also, it simply isn't possible to be that violent anymore. Sounness - although a great player as well - was also an animal.
