No need m8. I appreciated your opinion, and how you conveyed it.

Same page. Indeed, strange why anyone would try and compare them, purely based on their different playing styles...let alone fitness.

I respect, and understand what you're saying. But by making a direct comparison, you're negating 'at that time'. That's the crux of the point. At there respective 'times' means you blur the line of comparison. Not even allowing for the fact that they were different types of player...

Seems to support the article linked. Interesting.

It stands to reason. And Grendel took the majority opinion of everyone on here as a guide...stunning, given he called them 'intellectually bereft'. ....you couldn't make it up :D

Throwing up on the sidelines for the local pub team ;)

Hahaha ....nice one

I'm not playing Internet points or sides. You might need help, I don't. Learn to deal with me, it'll make your life a lot easier, unless, of course, you live for this stuff....which given your display today, I think is closer to the truth.

There you go again....

For the second time. Once for Grendel, now for you. I said you can compare what ever you want. The media loves doing it. In my opinion, it's not valid, given all the criteria I've outlined.

My opinion, your opinion. I've been witness to the advances in just the last 4 or 5 years here. I asked a friend who trained with Sheffield Utd this year and he said that they had 'the works' when it came to fitness technology. Not sure why some are getting so bent out of shape about it...

Are you really doing this? Good lord. For someone who isn't threatened, you're all over my every word, even trying to 'cash-in' on the tongue in cheek ones. This thread hasn't been your best. I'd let it drop down the page.

I bet I'm not the only one that can't take you seriously sometimes.

And I maintain that....given the reasons I've repeated. Different players, different leagues, different styles, different formations, different technology ....and different decades.

With the technology of the time I assume? What a strange question. This whole thing with you claiming that technology hasn't evolved in a decade is quite bizarre. How's the Bluetooth working on your MG Maestro ?

Explains a lot ...

I just got a text message reply from a professional that trained with Sheffield United. He described their fitness technology as 'the works'. What league are they in ?

Then why waste so much of your valuable time trying to discredit my opinion? Unless you're just a bit weird of course.

You're priceless. The question was regarding the advances in the last 10 years. Which you earlier agreed had advanced. Now you jump on board against your own opinion in order for a cheap poke at your new perceived threat. I'm flattered.

I hazard a guess at yes. If they're doing it in the second tier in the US, it's reasonable to assume they're doing it in the third tier in England.
