Title: Re: Johann Cruyff RIP Post by: TheDazzler on March 25, 2016, 12:27:42 AM Superb player and a massive influence on world football I watched this a few years ago and it's great. Cruyff talks about 'the diamond'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NZ0byEyeOA Title: Re: Johann Cruyff RIP Post by: dino1980 on March 25, 2016, 02:42:19 AM One of the greatest ever and he'll be missed.
I can remember being at football camps in 1987-1990 (aged 7-10) and being able to pull off the Cruyff turn made you a decent player, it wasn't easy. I think every top 10 footballers ever list would include him. Great attitude too.

Title: Re: Johann Cruyff RIP Post by: Sheriff Fatman on March 25, 2016, 12:52:48 PM I was too young to appreciate him in his prime, but it's a sign of a legend of the game that this doesn't matter.
Rest in peace. Title: Re: Johann Cruyff RIP Post by: Steveswift on March 25, 2016, 07:33:02 PM As a kid playing football in the streets we were all someone, I was always him.
