How far back would Plymouth Argyle need to go?

How far back would the current Plymouth Argyle squad need to go before they could be classed as a top team?

I reckon they'd be seen as really good if they played before the mid 1980s. Football was a much lower standard back then.

Oof. Further back than that if we're talking top as in contending for trophies. There would come a point where the fitness and tactical knowledge advances that Plymouth benefit from would begin to trump any gulf in skill and, like you said, there'd also come a point where the skill of modern lower teams is not too far off the top teams of old. I don't see that being any later than the 60s and would be much more comfortable saying the 50s.

I agree with Mitas. The level of football hasn't really increased all that much since the 70s.
