Outside of the very obvious ones like Charlton, Best, Law, etc.
Been watching a bunch of football from the 70's and 80's and it's quite obvious that perhaps the football style and pitch quality (or lack thereof) suited certain profiles of players better than others.
Ian Storey-Moore suffered horrendously at United, which derailed the career of someone who perhaps could have helped with the transition of Best leaving the club. Always impressed me with his talent, touch, decision-making and dribbling. He'd get a lot more protection in the modern game and undoubtedly perhaps would have had a shot at reaching his ceiling potential.
Also, Willie Morgan. Reminds me of Kanchelskis in many facets of his dribbling and driving. Another player I think could be a great player in the modern game.
