All those guys are pretty old these days, I doubt it.

Messing puts that group of players over the top

He still announces red Bulls games. I used to like him back in those days. A local guy with all those International stars.

He's also done some stuff with MLS on NBC/SN

Watched the Cosmos documentary on Netflix last night, pretty well done.
Chinalgia was kind of a dick but did score a lot of goals. Still, who hates on Pele'?

No. Players today would run circles around them. The fitness training is just so much better. The tactical awareness is leaps and bounds beyond what it was 40 years ago. Modern players are just better.
Now, if you want to suppose those players from the 70s would have trained and practiced like professionals today do, then you have an argument. A world class player from the 70s would develop into a world class player in any generation given the same training as players of that era. However, if you drop take Messi or Ronaldo as they are now and drop them into the 70s, they would dominate on a level never before seen.

It is a completely different game.
