Otta Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Everything were better back then. Oh hang on, no it wasn't. I do feel gutted that I never experienced those cup final days, but the game has evolved and the fans have basically encouraged that and helped it on it's way. You reap what you sow.Money is king, Europe is money should that's the priority for the top clubs. Im pretty sure any player in a team placed lower than the middle of the prem woukd still feel just as excited abiut a trip to Wembley as ever, and you could argue that javing the semis there gives this experience to more players.

StraferJack Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Bout now Surely Thierry Henry has to be in there. I never saw a whole stadium get to its feet like i did when he was on the ball.

Otta Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 'bout now, I don't doubt it at all, and it ahoukd definitely come after the league finishes. However, part of the reason it was probably such a big deal was because there wasn't a kot of football live on telly, and there was nothing else to watch. These days kids would rather play video games or watch other stuff which wasn't available in the 70s.

DaveR Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 5 best players seen live:Cruyff, Best, Ronaldo (the fat Brazilian one), Platini, John Wark.Unfortunately I saw Cruyff in his last season playing at Barcelona and Best for Fulham, Ronaldo looking very uninterested for Inter, and tbh I don't remember Platini.John Wark though.....what a player.

'bout now Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I seem to remember Stuart Slater was the world champion at keepy-uppies? Destroyed Everton in the 90/91 FA cup, went to Celtic (was Liam Brady his manager or something) and disappeared.Quite sad really.
