    if Morphy was alive he died of a brain tumor so he couldn't think well because of  age as well

    Morphy played in an era where there was little, if any, analysis to study, few chess books, and his play still stands up in accuracy. Overall, one has to givew the nod to carlsen.

    I think better question is "who was more talented - Carlsen or Morphy?" to which I'd answer Carlsen still.
