    Yes. Not least because we won't find out how bad he is for another year.

    That is the trick. "The Oracle told you...only what you needed to hear."

    He strikes me as the kind of player who would have been a world beater about 60 years ago, i.e. when football was still sh*t.

    I give you the obscenely overrated George Best.

    I've no idea how good or bad Best was, since I never saw him play. Some people at the time seemed to think he was quite good, though.

    I think the very fact that Monty thinks he was over-rated, is (yet another) clear indication that he should get another hobby though

    The first footballer from a bygone era who would still stand out today was Maradona

    And even then, I'm not sure he was much better than, say, Georgi Kinkladze.

    So let me just clarify: you don’t think that great footballers of the past - given modern levels of training, fitness, nutrition, etc, etc - would be great players today?
