Cruyff was and remains the absolute %@#$&!s. The best player in the best club side the world's ever seen, then popped over to Barcelona and won them their first title in 18 years, smashing Real Madrid 0-5 in the process. Became manager of Ajax in '85 and completely revamped the youth set-up and their playing style. This produced the side that briefly dominated European club football in the mid 90's before being decimated by the Bosman ruling. Then he went to Barcelona and did the same thing, while winning their first European Cup and four successive League titles. Would've managed the Dutch national side at the 1990 World Cup too, if wasn't for the £#%&!wits running the KNVB. Der Kaiser is up there, nqat. |
