There isn't a side from that era that could cope with the modern day fitness levels

Equally though, the game is considerably less physical than it was back then. Todd Cantwell whines when he gets tickled, imagine the treatment that would have come his way back then?

Also, the pitches were garbage in the winter months which made playing great football even harder.

As you say, not possible to compare. I think if they played each other, the current side would win because of fitness and because they've benefitted from playing on excellent pitches
