Johan Cruyff

Brilliant Dutch football/soccer player - Hendrik Johannes Cruijff - better known outside the Netherlands as Johan Cruyff. "He was named European Footballer of the Year three times (1971, 1973, 1974) and was the most famous exponent of the football philosophy known as Total Football developed by Rinus Michels." The Dutch team in the 70s was awesome, and Cruyff also contributed to the success of Ajax and Barcelona.

Whore, I disagree with you saying he was a one man team. Most of the scored goals that were shown were either him making assists, or a teamate giving him a really good assist. He was a pretty damn good player though, I`ll admit that.

I know we are supposed to look back at this dude like he is some sort of soccer pioneer or soccer god but it is hard to. People are so much bigger now and faster I really cant look at this guy like he is good. I dont think he could play TODAYS game because he really doesn`t appear to be that good in todays standards. kick the ball to the left or to the right and run fast as hell. It like... the relation between him being OK and the defenders being terrible make for a good player but I dont think he can even make his own national team today. Just my opinion I could be wrong, This was a short clip. Dont bash me for my opinion.

You should judge every player with his peers in his time. The fact that the game has evolved doesn`t mean he wasn`t an outstanding player. In his time he was great, he made Ajax one of the greatest clubs, helping them win three European Cups in a row. With the talent he had and the ability he would have been a superstar just as well if he`d been born 20 years ago and playing today.

Agreed on that !!! C. ronaldo is nothing compared to cruyff.
ronaldo is quick yes.. but cryuff turns so much better. (like gravity defying wise) just take a look at how far he steps his opponents and how well he stops etc... at all times he had full control of the ball.

Brilliant player!! That guy by "todays" standards would still be this good. The game has become kick and chase these days. The class of this dude would still outplay todays defenders. He reminds me of maradona

I never understood why Cruijff is not so well known? I wasn´t around in the 70´s to watch him play but from the videos I find him awesome ( better than Maradona in fact). Too bad that funny penalty he scored for Ajax wasn´t in the vid but still 5/5.

Disagree! Cruyff was awesome yes, and the way he twisted his body and combined it with pace to leave defenders standing is legendary. BUT you must admit C. Ronaldo is a better all round player - his goal record, his technical abilities (which some dismiss as "tricks") regularly keep defenders standing and in todays modern game, the fact that he stands out in a different class to his peers says something.

He is constantly touted by experts as the BEST footballer in the world right now. I agree, and I don`t even like the bloke!

To the guy who says that football today is all "chase and kick" I suggest you tune in to EURO 2008 while you still can to get a better impression. Best tournament of footie I`ve ever seen.

I wish football was still like this, notice how he only went down if he was forced to? .... Unlike so many of today`s players when if there is even a chance of it looking like a foul, it`s like they just died on the field
