Johan Cruyff

 

[Barchullona]

One of the greatest ever footballer, Johan Cruyff has died, aged 68.

In any list of the top half a dozen or so greats. And a better manager than any of the other greats.
You shudder to,think what he would be worth nowadays.

 

[ElTigre]

Lung cancer. He used to get through loads of cigarettes in the dug out.

A great, no doubt.

a great player but a walking invite to cancer, alas.

 

[Der Alte]

The Dutch team in the early 1970s was probably the best I've ever seen and Cruyff was the undoubted star. R.I.P.

Lung cancer. He used to get through loads of cigarettes in the dug out.

Then became an anti-smoking campaigner...

Agree one of the few who can realistically be called a legend - changed the way the game was played. Hope they retire the Dutch 14 shirt in tribute.

r.i.p. Cruyff. one of the greatest footballers ever

 

[tigerincanada]

One of the greatest footballers of all time, he and the "Dutch Masters" brought excitement and joy to the game in the seventies ... such a breath of fresh air.

Here are some of his quotes:

"Quality without results is pointless. Results without quality is boring."

"Playing football is very simple, but playing simple football is the hardest thing there is."

"In a way, I’m probably immortal."

As long as there is video footage available and as long as coaches keep teaching the "Cruyff Turn," you will be immortal, Johan.

I honestly believ we will never see someone like him ever again.

****ing poncey, puffed-up, over-paid tarts we have now...

 

[originallambrettaman]

This is brilliant, loads of people are buying 14 shares in Ajax, as a tribute to the man...

One of the greatest of all time, and one of my favourite players. RIP.


Not only an inspiration during his playing days, but also made Barcelona what they are today through his management.
