    If the Lisbon lions were to enter this years champions league. Do you think they could win it? If not what teams do you think would beat them.

    it is different these days and i dont think you can compare.

    players fitter, faster, stronger and less tackling. guys like jinky would thrive but defenders might not

    No even past the qualifiers. A straight comparison they would be like a junior side compared to the fitness levels of the modern footballer and as such would be torn apart.

    Comparing players/team like this is unfair on them.
