When Capello started the "turnover system" their squad was amazing. If we take in account all the rule changes, number of foreign players allowed,...
I agree on "La Quinta", especially 1988. I don't on Netzer's Borussia, not because it wasn't a very good side, but because those European Cups...

His starting position was the one of a deep-lying playmaker (that's why Liedholm dropped di Bartolomei to defence), but his area of influence was...
I love how high the Brazilians rated Rajko Mitic. Even over their own Jair (certainly one of the starts of that World Cup).
