I watched a lot of his videos and read a lot of old articles about him. I could easily put Cruyff as the 3rd best player of all time, only behind Pelé ans Messi, and above Maradona. What most people forget or dont know about Cruyff is that he was insanely good but also versatile with lot of qualities even on the defence.
@berkaydemirbas3841He was also Real Madrid coach and won la Liga with them, and he was 2nd and 3rd in Ballon d’or so he was one of the best players in the world not just "according to pep"…
Bernt Schuster was an absolute beast for West Germany (as it were called back then) and the two Madrid clubs that he went on to represent after his time with Barca. Proper old school midfielder. I loved 80's football, where midfielders had to be extremely tough, and Bernt Schuster was definitely that.
Schuster was nothing like Roy he had far more technique midfielders but then had to be far more physically resilient because Defenders would kick you like they were playing Street Fighter she was there was elegant and had a great range of passing he was also a lot less physical than Roy he didn't just walk up to a guy and try to break his legs because he took the ball away from him.
I don't see this as a compliment, on the contrary. I see it as an honor for the opposing team to sign someone who played for the rival. It shows that the guy was so good that the team thought: "if we can't beat him I have to have him on my team".
Zidane is the most overrated nostalgic player. I swear if his name was Robert instead of zidane he wouldn’t be in this list. He did not change football in a universal level like the other guys
@@jenni431 lol his prime was like 5 years in total before he hurted his leg and ended his career when he was like 33. While CR7 was balling in Juve at 35.
Pep acknowledgment to Cruyff being the goat is impeccable 🐐. Cruyff made the biggest impact on football of all players. Not only on the field the best player of his generation, but also the best manager bringing barca it’s first CL victory and the base of the barca we see today.
Na I disagree. He had a great impact but it was the Hungarians who literally did all the hard work while Cruyff seems to get all of the credit despite his own acknowledgment that it was Hungary not himself who are the fathers of modern football
Maradona has stated that the Holland team of '74 played a style of football that was never seen before and has never been seen since, his personal favourite team of all time. Cruyff lead this team both technically and tactically. For me Cruyff is one of the GOATS

If Schuster had not clashed with the German Federation, he would be more remembered. He even won the Euro in 1980 with the (then) West Germany. He was something!
True. He also won the Silver Ball in 1980, only after Golden Ball winner Rummenigge. The Germany squad was studded with stars and Schuster would have been a jewel in the crown.
Barcelona saw nothing in Pep when he played in youth, he would be too short and not have a strong physique. However, Cruyff chose Pep when he was a teenager because he thought Pep was a smart player. He taught Pep to play with his brain and not just with his feet. Since then, Cruijff has been his second father.
He named Schuster ❤❤❤ Such an underrated Player. So many German players from the 70s 80s 90s 00s could join all-star teams and are seldom talked about Almost the whole 1990s squad for example. Just talked about them the other day
