Carragher


Team played 2 - 4 - 4 formations, scoring would have been a doddle 🙃

Its always hard to compare sportsmen of different eras due to the advancement of training, diet etc, but skill and talent is natural, I reckon even in today's game with all the benefits footballers get the likes of Dean, Best, Charlton, Pele would still be the best in the world.
Yeah there are some athletes that are just way beyond everyone else no matter what the sport or period.
 
Carragher is the worst of the worst. Spits at kids, not only is he a turncoat but his dad followed suit, which I can’t wrap my head around.

His dad must of been in his 40’s and was clearly a gigantic Blue but now sits in Anfield chanting their songs. I can’t understand that change so far on in life.

There were more goals in the game in general in the 1920s. Dixie scored 60 in 39 league games (he missed the other three games for one reason or another) and Haaland scored 36 in 38.

I disagree Haaland is the greatest but it’s not a completely ridiculous argument. Assuming it’s being offered in good faith, which it may not be.
 
Baffles me how this didn't end his career as a pundit. Especially on a platform like Sky.

Its because he plays for Liverpool and the show runner for sky sports football shows is a kopite.

If carragher played for Fulham he'd get laughed out of the studio for his idiotic takes. But because he played for them he's regarded as one of the best pundits.

In 1925-26 the fa changed the offside rule which made it easier to score the was a 35%
Increase in goals being scored just when dixie started his Everton career
 
Dean was the best in his era and his stats prove it. However, none of those old boys could compete in today's game. Today's generation is bigger, stronger and faster. The same will be said in another 4-5 generations.

I don't agree on Haaland though. Kane is better for a start and he's still playing.

Better footballer, yes...not sure about the better striker, depending on how you view those two words.
