He reinvented what a defender was supposed to be. He won it all as a player and then as a manager. When he was done, he did a stellar work at organising a world cup
Dude, hearing this I'm glad those were still alive when I started getting known football. It would've been scary hadn't they existed when people talked about Ronaldo, Henry, Kaka, or Messi as some of the greats during their era. And I hope we won't lose another legend for at least 3-4 years, but I'm being pessimistic about it now.
Rip a true legend that goes undernoticed at times because of the time period when he played,He deserved all the fame he got and he is alive in our hearts.
Today's generation cannot understand the impact he had on german football he was the one who made bayern munich the team it is today the pioneer of the modern day football REST IN PEACE ❤DER KAISZER YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGETTEN ❤❤
@@nicolagianaroli2024 I don't see why Herd Muller was an amazing Striker, however Franz is an overall amazing complete player who overshadowed Gerd while playing alongside him while playing in a less favourable position,yet he has nominated far more times and won it twice. Also If exclude Franz I would go with Eusebio
@@Yami1300 Look at the number. More specifically look at the goal scored with the national team. Nobody has a better goal scored per match ratio than the "Bomber der Nation" (68 goals in 62 matches). Even Pele (77/92) or Puskas (84/85) are behind Muller. Not to mention Cruijff (33/48), Messi (109/186) or Maradona (34/91) who are far, far behind. The very same teammate have testified that. Paul Breitner for example is very clear in saying that Gerd Muller has made the real difference for Bayern Munich and for the national team. Gerd Muller was simply phenomenal
i was going to mention that. he really influenced german football heavily and recovered germanys pride back then but his legacy remains until today. when i was a kid, i often asked older people who the greatest german footballer of all time was and there was no other response to it than Franz Beckenbauer. This is still stuck in my head
It has to be noted that Zagallo, one of the other two footballers beside the Kaiser to win the World Cup both as player and as coach, passed away just two days before him. An era has ended. I would also add that Franz Beckenbauer in his tima as an official was instrumental in bringing the 2006 cup finals to Germany.
@@alexanderroger-kim8435 I did not name him, but yes, he is the other of the two beside the Kaiser - and of course now the only one alive. I just wanted to keep my post short; certainly no disrespect meant.
Look at that elegance. Always keeps the head up, effortlessly controlling the ball. He doesn't need to have an eye on the ball, it does what he wants anyway.
There will never be another like him he was the the legend of legends amazing on and off the ball was always in the the right place at the right time R.I.P Franz
Der Kaiser played way before I started watching football in the 90’s but my father was a big fan and so was I. We loved watching him just analyze and talk about football. RIP Kaiser.
As a German who has seen pretty much all the bio-picks of Beckenbauer, including the 90 minutes documentary from ARD, I would rate this one in my top 3. I had tears in my eyes. Thank you so much for this ❤ PS: Nice move to include the iconic ad and the wonder of Bern in this one 😁
What a legendary German footballer and manager Franz Beckembauer sir was,good friends!!!He was an iconic legend the sport had ever produced but some have already forgotten about him!!!REST IN PEACE FRANZ BECKEMBAUER SIR,YOU MUST NEVER EVER BE FORGOTTEN BY ALL OF US!!!😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
All rivalry aside, as a fan of 1860, you just have to appreciate what he did for German football and football in general, be it on or off the pitch. What a legend! RIP Kaiser Franz
The Germans lost their most loved German. He could even run for president if he wanted after 1990 World Cup. He was so gifted with charisma and talent, so smart, so generous and so humble at the same time. RIP Kaiser Franz
@@DerDarkKnight no, it is paul Breitner or at least best player. Both Vogts and Beck was clear on the question. Glen Hysen, the swedish cb says the same. He is the one who has been forgotten. The beck thing is more from later generations but the ones that watched the team play usually said that breitner was the best player.
We lost so many great people. People that defined germany after the war, people that made it what it is. The people that brought prosperity, safety and stability into this country. My grandfather was also one of them. He died on april the 8th with 96 years. He worked so extremely hard for this country, leaving three children and many grand-children and grand-grand-children behind. He was such an extremely strong willed person who always wanted the best for his family. People like that are not made anymore in germany. The hard times brought germany the strongest generation since we could remember. And now they are dying away, one after another, leaving our weak generations that grew up in constant prosperity and peace.
As a Hanseatic man from Hamburg I can say this is the most wonderful homage on Beckenbauer - especially the history of Bayern during the Nazi times I didn't know - I saw him play at HSV in 1983 against Leverkusen after the legendary 3:4 win from HSV in Munich - and I saw hin at his farewell game from the national team in Hamburg - Everybody who knew hin said what humble guy he was - I would the most famous German in modern times - when friends from Kinshassa or Tehran migrated to Hamburg, everybody already knew at the age of 5 who was Franz Beckenbauer 🙂
Too short… this legend deserved a longer video. Your style for this kind of videos is the best. Please, do not limit yourself to just 15 minutes, especially when talking about legends like the Kaizer
You need to make one about Roberto and Dino Baggio. I met a girl in hospital one day she told me her uncle played football she said “ I don’t know if he was any good” I asked her who he was and she told me his name was Roberto, and Dino was her other uncle. She had no idea who they were. Kids today need to learn about them
Franz is the type of footballer who needs a seperate home just for his trophies . Legend of the game , invented a whole position (sweeper) and was individually at the top forever ,Franz Becknbauer the example of what a legendary footballer should be
Dieser grossartige , sehr einzigartige Fußballer hat Geschichte geschrieben . Und bitteschön , er war Mittelfeldspieler , kein Torjäger . die Erinnerung bleibt , für immer .
Nailed it again my man, lately you are making each one more entertaining than the last no matter the material. You have come so far in your script and narration of it, it’s so cool to witness
Hope one day someone like Beckenbaur will be reborn and he will change the game back to what he did ages ago. RIP Beckz. Also am convinced Lucas and Raymar plan videos together
For some reason, his career gave me a strange de ja vu considering what has had happened to Messi, who also forced to leave his club for PSG, but then fled to USA and played very well at Inter Miami. Still though, Der Kaiser has to be recognized not as the greatest of all times, but the all-times greats as a football player himself. He indeed completed football as a whole. Thanks for everything you have had done for the game that we people all love and Rest In Peace, hope you would be welcomed by Maradona, Pele, and your eternal teammate, Muller.
@@HorstGanz Right, maybe Messi's presence there could help increasing its level like back then. I have a suspicion that Messi wanted to increase the competitiveness of the league by developing all of the league players.
Nací en el 76 y durante toda mi vida mis dos máximos ídolos han sido Beckenbauer y Cruyff. Me hiciste llorar, literalmente, me emociona que se haga justicia con una verdadera leyenda como es es el Kaiser. Gracias
Love your videos. However, it's important to note that Beckenbauer nearly transferred to Inter, not AC Milan as mentioned. Additionally, Uwe Seeler never played for Bayern, so he couldn't have gotten sore after playing against Atletico Madrid.
I read AC Milan in a lot of places, I guess it's a common misconception. When it comes to Seeler, I mean you're right I have no idea how it didn't hit me that he couldn't have said that like that, but the quote is real, at most I've mistranslated it? Maybe he was telling it in the third person? idk, regadless, I'm sorry for the mistake.
@@DailyDoseOfFootballYTHe almost played for Inter. Beckenbauer revealed himself decades ago that his big dream was to play for Inter and alongside Fachetti or Suarez.
Franz Beckenbauer WAS Germany, his vey presence iluminated players beyond their capability. A knowledgeable and educated man, der kaiser eclipsed everything before him and won so much silverware and the World Cup as a player in 1974 and as a manager in 1990. Rest in eternal peace you legend. DER KAISER.
I’m so pissed that nobody told me that one of the goats died last week, no news no notifications no nothing. But anyways rip, the thing I will remember about him will always be his badassery in the 1970 World Cup semi aka the “game of the century” where he dislocated his shoulder yet kept playing as germanys last man of defense, he was the king of sweepers for a reason. he was like some sort of badass anime character. I might be Italian but………..I respect the hell out of that man.
Franz Beckenbauer has ALWAYS been appreciated for what he achieved as a player, manager and footballing statesman. I don't know why people think otherwise.
He was already there when I was born and there wasn't a day when the name Franz Beckenbauer wasn't spoken in the media. Now you can watch the games with Pele and all the others at your leisure. Franz, we thank you. R.i.P.
Loved that episode!! If I could make a suggestion, look up Uwe Seeler. He´s a German (Hamburg) legend who only ever played for the same club, despite getting huge offers from international clubs. He is one of 6 Honored Captains of the german national Team beside Fritz Walter, Lothar Matthäus, Jürgen Kliensmann, Phillip Lahm and of course Franz Beckenbauer. He became part of the national Team when he was 17 and Captain at 24/25. He was also the first top scorer in the first Bundesliga season, sadly he passed away in 2022.
Great effort! Thank you for it. But to say "Germany made it somehow to the finals" in the World Cup 1954 is not very nice because the German team played very convincing during the KO games defeating Austria 6:1 in the semi finals. And don't forget that the team that lost to Hungary 3:8 was a B team because Herberger who expected to lose against Hungary spared his best players for the last group game against Turkey. But again, I like your video.
He was the one who revolutionized the entirety role of modern defenders these days who aren't only obligated to defend, but also act as a good passer, a ball playing defender, while also scoring goals when needed. Truly a legend.
@@kohikappu No that was Paul Breitner. Beckenbauer played as a Libero, a role that is no longer available. He was great in anticipating the game, getting many balls by being in the right place. But he always had his center back Katsche Schwarzenbeck to do the muddy part of the job.
Never has there been another player, who moved so graciously around the field. Everything he did looked so effortless. Incredible player. Him and Cruyff are my all-time favourites. I was lucky to see Franz live against Austria Wien, him, der Bomber, Sepp Maier and other former great players of Bayern.
Your videos are way too underrated. This video here is amazing. I learned a whole batch of information and I say that as a Bavarian born and bred. The only criteria is that "Kaiser" is not spelled with a "Z", but your narration is highly immersive, the video cuts are excellently timed, and the content is highly interesting. Well done ! 💯%👍
Franz Beckenbauer inspired me to play as a defender and go help in the attack like he did. He scored so much goals while being a defender and I also played CDM because before defense he was deep in the midfield. Der Kaiser.
i loved this commercial when it came out. i laughed out loud the first time we saw it during a match we were watching at a bar here in vancouver, my buddy (much younger) was confused. he had no clue who Beckenbauer was.
Did u know that Jonathon E in rollerball movie with James Caan was based on Franz 😉 one of the top 10 players in history & one of the few guys whose style & skill who are still used as a reference. 1 Luv Kaiser ❤
In my youth and high school years I would only play as libero. That’s keeping the defence going while being free (libertad) to push forward when the pitch opened up. Watched every game I could and if not, read every match report where Beckenbauer played. Many tried to imitate him, but we were all mere pawns compared to ‘Der Kaiser.’ Amazing sportsman and mercurial footballer with talent to spare.
RIP Beckenbauer i didnt get to watch him play in person but my grandad showed me tapes of his old games and i can say he is arguably the best player to come out of germany god bless his soul
Hard to say. Matthäus is probably the most complete german player. But both also played in different eras and different roles so they are hard to compare
@@meganoob12 Matthäus didnt glide like der Kaiser did. For me Beckenbauer is the best German player of all-times, Gerd Müller 2nd and Lothar 3rd. I have watched Bayern and the German national team since 1970, so there is some perspective 😄
"The wall in my old backyard was my most honest teammate, you play a proper pass, you get another back" 💪💪
yea, that was a nice line!
I lived by that line in my teens. Stood in the car port just passing the ball as fast as I could against the brick wall. I’d say it works 😂

Beautiful video ❤
Franz Beckenbauer inspired me to play as a defender and go help in the attack like he did. He scored so much goals while being a defender and I also played CDM because before defense he was deep in the midfield. Der Kaiser.
Rest in peace der kaizer. Thanks for video bro
i loved this commercial when it came out. i laughed out loud the first time we saw it during a match we were watching at a bar here in vancouver, my buddy (much younger) was confused. he had no clue who Beckenbauer was.
That was a great video, perfect final line as well. Thank you
Can you make a part 2 on this? I’m really intrigued as to how his career was as a manager.
One of the top 5 footballers of all time
Bro woke up opened RUclips watched an football edit and decided to make a documentary 🐐
Absolutely great video!! Fantastic work mate!!!❤
Your narration is flawless. This may be your best.(?) Thank-you
Love your videos. Just so well made. RIP Franz
We all here in Germany love and miss this Legend
One of Europe’s greatest footballers. Absolute legend!
I remember the first time I saw this commercial. When they said his name, I felt it. Such was the impact of Beckenbauer.
Thank you for your great video! 👍👍
Did u know that Jonathon E in rollerball movie with James Caan was based on Franz 😉 one of the top 10 players in history & one of the few guys whose style & skill who are still used as a reference. 1 Luv Kaiser ❤
3:03 powerful people come from powerful places.
In my youth and high school years I would only play as libero. That’s keeping the defence going while being free (libertad) to push forward when the pitch opened up. Watched every game I could and if not, read every match report where Beckenbauer played. Many tried to imitate him, but we were all mere pawns compared to ‘Der Kaiser.’ Amazing sportsman and mercurial footballer with talent to spare.
all this and dont forget he is a DEFENDER unbelivable
Was waiting for this. I'll watch later.
RIP Beckenbauer i didnt get to watch him play in person but my grandad showed me tapes of his old games and i can say he is arguably the best player to come out of germany
god bless his soul
Hard to say. Matthäus is probably the most complete german player. But both also played in different eras and different roles so they are hard to compare
He's second only to Thilo Kehrer

@@meganoob12 Matthäus didnt glide like der Kaiser did. For me Beckenbauer is the best German player of all-times, Gerd Müller 2nd and Lothar 3rd. I have watched Bayern and the German national team since 1970, so there is some perspective 😄
Thank you for this video, Beckenbauer was one of the greatest footballer and manager.
He made Germany what they were and invented the Libero role what a legend
That Jose plus 10 Adidas ad in the beginning was released for WC 2006 and that's when I first heard of Beckenbauer. Been a fan ever since!!
