what I love about this era and Johan Cruyff was the fact that no matter how many tackles he received he never dove once. today's era one light tackle and you see a lot of ballerinas diving everywhere.
@kangaroo3708 still multiple examples of him not dodging them, impossible ones, dirty outright kicks and he still stays on his feet, or at least doesn't make a meal of it, often even continues dribbling
He may be gone, but he isn't dead. In a world where football exists, Johan Cruyff is not dead. Football is the way it is because of him. Cruyff isn't dead, because legends never die. RIP.
The Einstein of football. He invented and orchestrated as the great leader of the team (Ajax and the famous Clockwork Orange) total football. No one like him could think two steps ahead before receiving the ball. The inventor of the trivela pass and the master of the assist.
Inventor of trivela pass ? No, you are totally wrong. Players here in Brasil, like Didi, Danilo Alvim, Ipojucan, Zizinho back in the 40s, 50s, were masters at that type of pass. So Cruyff didnt invented it.
René kadijk bij Ajax was het toch echt Michels vriendelijke vriend , die de baas was en Cruyff eronder. Zoveel mensen maken die fout ‘ Cruyff bedacht ‘totaal voetbal’ NEE het was Michels gvd met Cruijff als ‘assistent en speler’ zogezegd
Johan, still remember 1974, when I first you on the world stage.Thank you for the memories.Your efforts in producing the best football goes on till today.Forever missed, my friend
Once upon a time football was art. Now Barcelona is one of the best example and continuing the legacy of Master Johan Cruyff. Great to see and i wish i could see his playing live.
Great speed and acceleration. On top of that, cruyff had great timing, balance, and elegance which made his dribbling artistic and effortless. Greatest European player of all time, period.
Brilliant. Well put together. What a player. I caught him a little late in his career to actually appreciate how good he was but after watching videos all day, it is clear he was one of the best players to ever play the game. RIP Johann.
As a madridista! I have to admit that, Cruyff is the most genius football player of all times. End of discussion!! He invented to the football the style of Tiki-Taka starting from Ajax to Barcelona! The one who coached the dream team of Barcelona! Romario, Pep Guardiola, Koemann, Laudrup and Stoichkov !!! They won the first UCL ever for Barcelona! Without this legend! Barcelona wouldn't be the team the world 🌎 known ! Teach that !
@@Libzalii yes he did!!!! He also the first coach ever to play 3-4-3!!! When he was the coach of Barcelona!!! Go learn and then talk! And by the way he was also coaching Pep Guardiola back in 90’s!! And Pep was just doing the same tactic he learned from Johan!! I am pretty sure you did not know all of that! And now you know, thanks to me!!
RIP Legend! I was not born in your era so did not get the privilege to watch you live, but I have watched most of your videos on TH-cam. You truly are one of the greatest players of all time. You are one of those rare persons in Football who were super successful both as a player and a coach. A player like you comes once in a lifetime!
It will always be impossible for the comparison with others top players... He was a different player, clever and shrewd, which occupied the entire field with elegance and disarming charisma, he was able to dictate the pace of the match, to suddenly snap with an amazing ball control at a supersonic speed. Cruijff changed football. Only those who can not remember him saying that he is not the best player of the football history
jkj10 definetely pele is the greatest along with Maradona ，but cruyff is one of top five， accurate speaking he is the third best player ever. If Messi win American Cup, he could be the top 3
The supreme visionary general, the master of total football, probably the single most influential and important individual in the history of football. He lives on not only in the memory of those of us so fortunate to see him play but in every game of football, now and in the future. Thank you, Johan, may you be blessed as we have been by your life
Johan Cruyff changed football, he made a new great era in Barcelona when he came in 1973. He deserves to be in the top 10 best players in football history.
Amazing to watch some of the dribbling about halfway through the clip. How he stayed on his feet despite repeated fouls. So different from today's so-called stars ! Marvellous to watch.
for fans that love and thinks about the game despite they like it or not, they have to admit that this filosofy is the one that had and still have upgraded the beautifull game.rinus michels johan cruyff guardiola mecanical orange ajax barcelona thank you
That was a pretty amazing compilation. Cruyff seemed able to invent a move on the spot. I think he may have evolved football more then most people give him credit for. It is pretty easy to see he was already in a defenders head before he got the ball.
I am truly amazed here by how cruyff fans and fans for other footballers react to the video. Cruyff fans comment on the video straight on and fans for other footballers reply to these comments. I am also dissapointed by why people think too objectively. There was no doubt that Johan Cruyff is one of the best legends (maybe the best) but there is no way you can think about it objectively. People have opinions and because of this it becomes unclear. Just like modern days people would often vote for messi over other historical players and alot of fans are considering these as facts. There's no way you can compare people from different generations by how good they are, but by how great (rate at which they changed football). Cruyff, undoubtedly, was one of the 3 footballers in history that changed the football world and opinions may vary from person to person on the style, position, or records themselves. But at the end, Cruyff turned out to be my favorite. 🏅🏅
Well, if Cruijff is not the greatest of all time, you can rule out Messi being the greatest of all time, because he has spend his whole career at Barcelona, a club which, without Cruijff, wouldn't be where they are now. So, Messi owes everything to Cruijff. So, when people think Messi is the greatest, then they actually think Cruijff is the greatest.
Search cruyff godfather. You see a match of Ajax-Nac in times of the biggest crisis at Ajax when Cruyff had to streetfight with his enemies from the direction/board of Ajax. Eventually he won at court, with 14 ex players behind him. In the video you see how Cruyfff became the empire of the Amsterdam Arena, when 50.000 people stood up for him and chanted for him, while he was in the stadium with his wife. The boardmembers who were also present became very tiny...... Add this to what he did for Catalunya in the seventies. Beating Franco's Madrid in Bernabeu with 0-5 is incomparable. Barca became champions of Spain for the first time in 14 years. 3 times winner of the big cup with Ajax, and he made a final losing team in 1974 more famous than the actual winners Germany. People still talk about 74. Add this above to his foundation who helps disabled kids+100 soccer fields around the world for children to play on from his foundation. And i think that Johan Cruyff is the most special player of all time. Ajax players are called '' the sons of the gods'' So don't tell me that it's a coincedence that our Godfathers initials are J.C. Cruyff met Max verstappen in Barcelona before he died, just after Cruyff dies a new hero steps up,in barcelona of all places. Verstappens was the first Dutchman to win a Grand Prix his end time 1.41.40 -----------> 2 times 14 Coincidence......
A joy to watch, what a player, super control and accelaration, incredible awareness of where the entire defense is. What a great player. To me is without question among top 5 all time.
His individual actions with the ball are breathtaking but what I really admire is how at the same time he reads the rest game and influences it by his decelerations & accelerations. Since Cruijff I’ve only seen that with Zidane and Messi.
what I love about this era and Johan Cruyff was the fact that no matter how many tackles he received he never dove once. today's era one light tackle and you see a lot of ballerinas diving everywhere.
He was able to dodge tackles that’s why they didn’t hurt
There’s not many players in history that can do it like he can
Amen, Wayne!
@kangaroo3708 still multiple examples of him not dodging them, impossible ones, dirty outright kicks and he still stays on his feet, or at least doesn't make a meal of it, often even continues dribbling
Not to mention the agressive pinching and grabbing you see nowadays
It's pretty easy honestly how is it so hard for them nowadays. @@kangaroo3708

Er, not in THIS sport - read what Guhsteh wrote ! Don't remember MJ playing much football (soccer, for the benefit of our American friends) actually.
Cause the world don't deserve him
@oof sauce well i'm pretty sure Cruijff was not a good basketball player and Micheal Jordan was not a good football player
Cruyf is the one who build this Barcelona

not tiki taka but total football....

Goodbye Johan Cruyff :( !!!

Agree
Messi is better
fabrizio rossi : wrong..I have seen him play, but in my opinion he wasn't the greatest ever..He's up there with the best, I agree.
Un Important Messi isn t better
jkj10 definetely pele is the greatest along with Maradona ，but cruyff is one of top five， accurate speaking he is the third best player ever. If Messi win American Cup, he could be the top 3
He way ahead of time, the greatest icon ever.
Good luck Johan, fight your battle with courage! from italy
