Why do people rate Yashin, but not Akinfeev...

Why do people rate Yashin, but not Akinfeev? They both spent their entire career in CCCP/Russian meme league and Akinfeev already has more clean sheets and titles

people rate Akinfeev and in the past he has been linked with almost all big clubs in europe but it has become clear he doesnt want to move and since nobody watches the russian league nowadays most people have forgot about him

Because Yashin played in a time where Russian football was somewhat relevant.

>Akinfeev
>Good

Akinfeev won UEFA Cup with his club while being 19, Yashin retired before first European trophy was won by Soviet team in 1975

Yashin won first EC and was somewhat innovative in his field play and Asshands is just best amongst other shitty russian goalkeepers of last decade.

In one of Football Managers Akinfeev had the potential to become best goalkeeper in the world

i remember the good ol times where i thought akinfeev was good
then wc 2014 happened

Oh, I meant second best

The goal that saved Korea

oh yeah so much cleen sheet vs slavshits like Krotov, Prudnikov, Kokorin, such impressive... he can never hold a clean sheet against good teams.

also he's a manlet

Yashin got his leg amputated because of heavy smoking, but still continued to smoke until he died

Isnt this the man who hasnt had a clean sheet in CL for over 10 years

Yes, 43 Champion League games in a row

>One took fire from Pele, Puskas and Eusébio
>The other is irrelevant

his awful CL record became a meme over here on bt sport

Because Yashin was a revolutionary GK and ballon d'or winner.
