I dont get this, why is nearly every single leading scorer from the new era?
Why is it never like „yeah he played in the 70s and is leading scorer off xyz“
You can check that, i am not talking bs, its hard to find a leading scorer that was in his prime between 1970-90
Why?
Defending has got worse, the offside rule now favours the attacking team. Plus the 3 instead of two points for a win means it’s more advantageous to attack than it was in the 70s
Agreed except defending hasn’t worse. Rule changes now mean rougher defending is now illegal. Also pitches, balls improving make getting the ball in the net easier
