Yet he was so much more than a dribbling genius. He was an architect of the game, highly intelligent, had vision and strategy, in addition to world class technical skills.
Am 64 and was brought up in the era of Cruyff and to this day can never understand why its always Messi or Ronaldo who was the best this guy had the lot and would be worth unthinkable money.

Debatable. A lot of things he did change, totally agree. The total football thing though, look at Brazil 70, for a start! The concept was the from way back from a guy called Hogan (johnny or jamie or similar)
@@tweedlio2763 the total football from the dutch was a transferable vision though, ajax and feyenoord were dominating Europe with that style of football too. Brazil is more organic their play arises from pure natural talent and chemistry put together. It's not a vision..
That clip of him running past several players is from the '74 WC final. He went past like 2-3 players and won a pen, inside the first few minutes of the game.
Not the first minutes of the game, the first seconds, the Germans had not yet touched the ball, it started as a last man (never seen besides him a striker changing roles with the same fluidity), Johan Neeskens then scored the fastest goal in the history of the World Finals.
I dont think you can overstate just how important Cruyff is to the beatiful game, come to think of it we call it the beatiful game because of his revolutionary football
En el 78 le robaron a Holanda. Sobornaron a los jugadores de Perú (un defensa y el arquero) para que se dejaran meter 6 goles, así argentina pasaba a la final.
There’s no denying, he was a class act. I was privileged to have watched him play many times. The difference between him and the so called modern great players is. He had little or no protection from the referees. Tackling was in many cases was brutal and he had much more influence on the game. Most definitely he was one of the greatest players ever. He can be mentioned in the same breath as Pele and Best!!
I remember many many years ago my cousin played professional soccer and he always mentioned Cruyff as an amazing player. At that time I had no idea what he was talking about.
Possibly the best all round footballer the game has seen. Impossible to restrict to any individual role, he was playing 'total football' as it was called.
The way he slides on that last goal to position himself for the shot is why he's top 1, most players would have had to take an extra step to take that shot but Cryuff is not most players.
@@aydenjchan25 Definitely not. Cruyff created the gamestyle of Barcelona, Netherlands and Ajax, destroyed the Dutch championship, the Spanish championship and almost won a WC for his country the first time he played a WC himself.
@@Aaron-np5xeexactly 💯. But i guess Maradona, Messi and R9 come really close to sir Cruyff . Personally I think Messi is a bit better than Cruyff . But if we compare overall contribution then definitely Cruyff right now
Difficult to describe him as a playmaker, dribbler, forward, midfielder etc. Maybe he was just the total footballer. The most total footballer ever seen? Gullit and Van Basten were perfectly cut from the Cruyff cloth too
The tackle on JC was so hard & rough during his era.. ronaldo & messi wouldn't survive the tackle of JC era..defenders nowadays are so scared to tackle while both hands behind their body in the penalty box & afraid of hand ball & their mobility to defend is limited.
The Holland team of '74, was the best team not to win a World Cup. And the Brazilian football team of '82 was superb and highly entertaining, despite having a dodgy striker ,Serginho.
@@netaji-thebritishslayer4379 do you even watch football? Best is a name of player he is George best one of the greatest dribbler And yes Muller is GERD Muller from 70s
Ustedes contaba con un todo terreno como Bertie Vogts : ese " le marcó la cancha a Cruyff" a partir del 1 a 0 ... Y Alemania SI SABE como jugar FINALES, cosa que Holanda, NO ... 🤷🇦🇷
Vraiment dommage qu'ils n'aient jamais remporté une coupe du monde. 2 éditions de suite, en tant que finalistes. L'équipe des Cruyff, Rosenbrick et consorts ont pratiqué le plus beau football de tous les temps.
FIFA and UEFA they fix 2 games :: one was European ‘s cup with Germany and one was Mondial cup final with Argentina . In that time no team beat Hollande .
One of the best in football history
Yah boy
Yeah
But, the most important thing is the ball. Telstar by Adidas😊

Antes del primer minuto.
@@Zen.Nicolaclaro en los primeros segundos.
@@Zen.Nicola Yeah that's what I meant lol. My mistake for wording that poorly. Did he not score in the second minute from the spot?

Without him football wouldn’t be the same today. A true master of the game
Jogador fantástico era Cruyff pena ter jogado só uma copa.
Un phénomène hors pair, avec ses dribles chaloupés et ses ballons collées au pied .
Kruyff is the best for me because he is successful as a player and trainer " he starts mastaya school in Barcelona " .
El Einstein del fútbol tenía de casero a los uruguashos. Se las hizo a 3 y a uno lo dejó desparramado en la cancha😄. Cruyff, lo máximo.
Cruyff el mejor jugador de los 70 , con el mejor equipo de los70 y la mejor selección de los 70.
Holanda Majestosa Mereçe Uma Copa Do mundo Croyff genial 👏
Complete player. An Einstein of the fields. He had an incredible notion of space and speed. The "Cruijff turn" is an exemple of that.

Cruyff.... The best😊
The best of Europe, maybe.....
The best football player of all times.
Cruyff changed the game. He didn’t play for a super team in Spain based around him…
No he played for a super team in Holland based around him...
@@JimbobiscuitThat team was one of, if not the best team in Europe at the time.
@@tweedlio2763 agreed

Better as a player than CR7? Different players but Im not so sure tbh. Ronaldo edges it I think with his prime ability.
@@timothydamoulis2574 Cruyff Prime clears
He was an artist!!! He was dancing with the ball!

The fourth action dribble isn't Johan Cruijff but is Rob Rensenbrink.
On dirait .

Can watch this forever⚽️⚽️⚽️
Poetry in motion 💖
Best player on earth
My dad still says he hasnt seen a better player. That tells me how magnificent he was
La clase con un balón : Johan Cruyff ⚽
Messi has a similar style when running with the ball
A lot of his dribbles were premonitions of what would occur decades later...
FIFA and UEFA they fix 2 games :: one was European ‘s cup with Germany and one was Mondial cup final with Argentina . In that time no team beat Hollande .
Holland have a no. 9 crisis recently, but once they have a striker, it would be a world class. Cruyff, van basten, bergkamp, van persie.
He is just up there with the best Pele Maradona Maldini R9 Zidane Ronaldo Messi Baggio Matthaus Baresi
RIP LEGEND
A footballing genius.
Ojo que este muchacho también era MUY BUENO ... 👍👍👍👍👍🇦🇷
