Historical Revisionism
Because Prememe is the best league nowadays, a lot more people are reminiscing about the 2000s Prememe like it was also the best league in the world at the time, when it was like the 3rd or 4th, and ranking overrated faggots like Henry as a top player.

It's like how people talk about Beckham nowadays as if he wasn't only considered decent because he played for England which only had 2 guys at world level. Crazy stuff.

I guess everyone who put him as a top 5 player in the world in 2000, 2003, 04, 05 and 06 were just influenced by the current marketing of premier league

The English also love to ignore the fact that the SCOTTISH league was on par with, if not BETTER than the English league during the early 90s.

name one (1) player since beckham who could do what he did even 80% as good, you literally can't, trent is often mentioned but he's not even close. that's how you know he was goog, people call him overrated because jealous of his looks which is gay but the truth is he was a great player with a unique skill set

Liverpool had no business beating that Milan team. They were fucking outrageous. There hasn't been a better or more balanced side since.

Zidane was great, Baggio was great, Henry was a Ngubu that played in a league full of uncoordinated colts.

Him being overrated in that era does not mean he would suck in today's era. In fact, Beckham would be Baboon Door tier nowadays

FIFA (the game), warps opinions of kids alot too. While Henry and others are highlighted alot of legends didn't even make it in the game and are totally forgotten (platini for example) or really overrated because they are so good Ingame or underrated because they are so bad (van basten).

no you haven't, i can smell your bitterness from a mile off. same as other hasbeens like spain who can see their league receding in the rear view mirror

There is no bitterness, I'm stating a fact that zoomies can't comprehend. Like >>150197379 said, you grew up with a delusional image of some of these "greats" because of FIFA/WEPES.

Adriano is in a similar boat.

The Prem was 2nd best at worst during Henry's prime years. Only Serie A could compare, and even that was already on the decline as it could no longer financially compete with the PL after like 2003.
