Easily forgotten. But after Cruyff Holland's nr 2. The physique of a miner, but the footballing brain of a genius. Hard as rock, velvet touch. No nonsense, old school. This guy was football.
I am italian and i can easily remember him, V.H. was a great player . He was champion of europe and of the world in 70, uefa cup 74 and several times champion of Netherlands with Feyenoord.
You just gotta love how he's able to dribble around one or two men without actually moving. He just turns around and the other guy is nowhere. You are truly brilliant when you can make thinks look simple and effortless that are anything but.
@@Katrimanius No, it's true. Michels did not want him, but that was for Ajax, around '67 or so. It was when DHC/Xerxes collapsed and van Hanegem was looking for a new club . Ajax was interested but coach Michels found him too slow and one-sided in his play. Years later, with Michels now being national coach, he was man enough to admit he had been wrong then, and added vH to his selection.
Those gorgeous passes with the outside of the foot... yum. Players like Piet Keizer, Willem van Hanegem, Gerrie Mühren, Johan Cruijff... they were really great at that. Van Hanegem and Cruijff both tended to look to the other side in many cases, too (like turning their head to the right, and then passing to the left)... and their opponents almost always were tricked by that. I loved it, and I still do.
Ein toller, technisch ausgezeichneter und kampfstarker Mittelfeldspieler mit vorbildlicher Moral und Einstellung zum Spiel. Super Teamplayer.

Unfortunately he was afraid with cruyff to travel to Argentina in 1978 to play to that world cup, Holland needed them. In my opinion if they would have had the opportunity to play, it would be the same Argentina would have won , it was better team but the final game could be more dramatic
@@hectorpozo3860 I read the reason he didn't travel to Argentina was because Ernest Hoppel the manager could not guarantee him that he would play as a fix player. With just him on the field , Holland had a better chance to win, but with just Cruyff , Holland would have certainly won the World Cup.
@@13muller9 Yes, and it hurted even more for Van Hanegem because he had a huge admiration for Ernst Happel, who had been the coach of Feyenoord (with Van Hanegem as one of the key players) a.o. in their succesful season of 1969/1970, when they won the Europa Cup 1 (now Champions League).
He was so good. What a pity Cruiff and van Hanegem didn't play in 1978. Surely that then they had won the title. In a way he was a player like Zinedine Zidane.
@@Kleermaker1000 agreed Willem, ZIdane and Valderama the greatest 3 players of all time in my perspective (and although Willem is my great idol, I still rate Zidane a little bit higher)
Kind off, more a mix between a zidane the virtuoso and gatusso the butcher, zidane clearly a bit more talented and gifted, and gracious then van Hanegem, but I think any opponent would rather play against zidane because of van Hanegems ruthless mind set.
The King of Cool, strong as an ox and the best left foot in the history of football (yep, even better than those other two lefties). The only player remotely comparable in style would be the great Colombian, Carlos Valderama
Excellent comparison with Valderama, I fully agree. I have been Feyenoord supporter all my life and Willem was my greatest idol when I was a kid (and still is).My life path brought me to Colombia in the early eighties and I went to see a game of Deportivo Cali where Valderama was playing at the time in the early days of his career. I remember how my heart skipped a beat when I saw the resemblance of play, that apparently play in slow motion but so effective placing the ball as it was attached with a string to his feet. Also Zidane is in this group for me.
@@spencerglover1 In 1983 I was in Colombia the first time (after that lived 10 years there and 30+ years in Latin America in total). I went to see a game of Deportivo Cali. I remember how my heart missed a beat the first time the young Valderamma got the ball. The resemblance to Willem was remarkable. You are right on that his scoring ability was much less though (had to check Wikipedia on that one).

Rensenbrink "suffered" from playing in Belgium at a time when the best players typically played in their own country, unlike now. But anyone who saw the 1978 final will remember Robbie, for the wrong reasons. A great player. A very modest self effacing individual.

One of the best players in the world in the 70s no doubt, Real Madrid & olympique Marseille we’re chasing his signature but he decided to play for up and coming exciting Dutch team AZ and won trophies with them......
Henk Franken of met Van Beveren in zowel 74 als 78. Niks te nadele van Jongbloed, Schrijvers was ook beter maar Van Beveren was zoveel beter dan beiden. Aan de andere kant, gezien de situatie in Argentinië ten tijde van het WK daar, waren ze nooit als winnaars uit dat stadion gekomen. Of de scheids had zoveel penalties kado gegeven of wat dan ook totdat Argentinie op voorsprong gekomen zou zijn. Of Krol, als aanvoerder, was met de cup in de handen ontvoerd danwel neergeschoten. Daar had/mocht sws Oranje ( of eigenlijk elk ander land) nooit WK worden behalve gastland Argentinië
My youth (and far beyond)idol….I know why he is forgotten because in the WC 74 for some incredible reason he had number 3 instead of the number that he deserved and that still is for which he is the greatest Feyenoord player in history, number 10, in terms of football intelligence the second best player the world has seen (only Zidane I would rate higher, Valderama came close).
Forgotten ... by whom? Not by anyone who was alive in the 1970s. A delicate passer, tough tackler, could dish it out and take it. When football was still a sport for men instead of the tumbling crybabies of today.
0:54 just look at the way the Argentinian (?) defender slips..... best Oranje ever -no doubt. Unfortunately, '98 is the only other Dutch squad that comes close to this lot.
1988 and 2010 come close too. 2010 may be recent but Robben, Sneijder, Van Persie, Kuyt, Van der Vaart, De Jong, Van Bommel, Van der Sar.. They will go down as legends as well. We underrate them because they're so contemporary. 1988 needs no explanation. 1998 might be my sentimental favourite, as I was just a kid falling in love with football back then. 1998-2002 are definitely the greatest under performers in Dutch history. We should have won something during those years, even though some other countries like Italy, Brazil and France had spectacular generations as well.
he only started playing football (amateur) team from the age of 17!.... before that he played in the streets and in fields with his neighbourhood kids.....
Honestly world wide he might have bine forgotten but here in the netherlands pleople still know who he is. But that understand ble as he never play in a major team outside of the Netherlands so why wot they remember him.
Спорт
One of the greatest left footed passers of the ball to ever play the game and one hard man.
Ernst Happel descibed Van Hanegem as a perfect player; he could speed the game up, or slow down if necessary, and he was as strong as an ox.
One of the best players the world has ever seen.
Easily forgotten. But after Cruyff Holland's nr 2. The physique of a miner, but the footballing brain of a genius. Hard as rock, velvet touch. No nonsense, old school. This guy was football.
Glorious backspin on lots of his passes...magical player.
I am italian and i can easily remember him, V.H. was a great player . He was champion of europe and of the world in 70, uefa cup 74 and several times champion of Netherlands with Feyenoord.
He's luckily recovered from sickness, hope we can keep him around a bit longer.

Connor Duke best Dutch midfield player ever
Never forgotten, one of the, if not the greatest dutch footballers of all time. And a wonderful personality as well.
A great player in my favourite team of all time.
I am brazilian and remember this great player.
He surely was a great midfield player with great technique and vision. Rivelinho recognized that.
Als ik naar die man kijk nu, heb ik ik nog steeds tranen in min ogen van geluk👌wat een virtuoos👍🏽👍🏽❤️
he is not forgotten ,, still a legend in Rotterdam and the Netherlands
and in Utrecht : he grew up there and started at Velox, 2nd League prof. club in NL
if you love football, Willem van Hanegem will be high on your list. And I am an Ajax-fan :)
made me think what it was to be a midfield player.
