    Johan Cruyff now has lung cancer.

    He is a name i will always remember. Along with Pele. Maradonna etc.


    So who are the true legends of the game?

    Imagine being Ronaldo, you're probably the greatest out and out striker of all time and then a few years later a better Ronaldo comes along and you have to be referred to as 'Fat Goofy Ronaldo' <laugh>
