Watching Sky Sports football goals of the season from 96/97 on YouTube and few things crossed my mind;
- The amount of goals scored against United that featured.
- The amount of times big Pete got chipped.
- The amount of lobs or chips in general.
- And the utter state of the goalkeeping. I swear half the shots taken and scored would be, no joke, caught by modern day keepers.
Not only in the league but watched a replay of the 1996 FA Cup match between the Chavs and us (boredom) and likewise Schmeichel was chipped again. Also noticed how deadly Cole looked and how we were able to blow teams away with ease.
Bored out of my mind but the one thing holding back old teams in my opinion in the "older versus newer teams/era debates" is the appalling goalkeeping.
Thoughts?
