Pre-2000s Football

Yep, good job. Can’t read any more of Ramos being better than Adams. Not on an Arsenal forum anyhow :unamused:

I think Ramos the RB is better than Ramos the CB

Weaker than Adams, for sure.

Given trash like Upamecano is a CL Level defender now, I prefer to appreciate all the former legends.

Best player on FUT23 just because of that goal

Probably a little into the 2000’s this challenge but had to post it somewhere. No var needed on that one.

All that matters to the cutback rats

as the game is going to the final month, too many players have that kind of speed already… so a 88 rating Owairan is pretty much disposable.

Something Adams did, that no other player is likely to repeat, is to win the league title in three different decades as captain of his club.

He was just so consistently good.

Even Ferguson said that Adams was the best defender who’d never played under him. I don’t like Whiskey Breath, but that was some admission from him.

Following on from that Robbie Savage post yesterday.

Easy to see why some were eager to hit him with a challenge if he was gobbing off all game

I’ve seen matches at Highbury where there’s grass in the corners and the rest of the pitch was either mud or sand.

But these pitches suited us just fine with Graham as manager because the ball wasn’t on the ground long enough to get wet. :grinning:

The likes of Rangers and Celtic could attract big names back then. Could you imagine someone of Gascoigne’s stature going there now!
