Join JayDee Dyer & Nico Cantor for a brand new way of consuming the beautiful game with Numbers Don’t Lie from Sofascore. Recently on UCL Today, Thierry Henry & Gareth Bale discussed the dip in individual skill in the modern game. Join the crew as they take a moment to analyze the modern game of football, discussing whether or not the changes in play are detrimental to the sport. Spearheaded by Pep Guardiola's dominant squads such as Barcelona, Manchester City & Bayern, are they causing the sport to become dull? Plus, where did legends such as Ronaldinho & Kaká that used to showcase individual brilliance game after game go?
