i just watched a documentary about the development of football shoes and balls. in the docu there is a chapter where today's players like Henry, Zidane and Pires do some tricks with todays football gear and following that, with classic football shoes and an old leather ball.

they weren't capable to perform most of their tricks anymore and the ball control was lousy..remember players like Zidane, Henry and Pires...



just wanted to add these words because of the statement above that some of the heroes in the past wouldn't be great today....you should get a tape and watch Pele's style and tricks..he would dominate football even in this time...and even easier as back then....thanks to the foul rules of today's football
