A video about one of the greatest football players ever; Johan Cruijff. Songs: 1=Ludovico Einaudi - On, 2= Vivaldi - Summer (presto), 3= Ludovico Einaudi = Primavera, 4= Ludovico Einaudi - Nightbook
“I trained for 4-6 hours a day at Ajax academy, but I also played on the streets for 4-6 hours a day. Where do you think I learned to play?” - Johan Cruyff
It’s different times but nowadays I would think every youth player signed up to any large club isn’t allowed to play street football. It may have been different in the 60’s though. We were friends with a former Rangers youth player in the mid 80’s who used to play football with us but he just kicked the ball way, he didn’t tackle or run with the ball.
@@mrporsche4236 Cruijff could play in any zone. Cruijff was more of an athlete than Maradona. Cruijff was more complete. Maradona was better with his hands.
Cruyff, not only the fastest, most technical and strategic player that ever lived. His influence on the game is still seen in football every day! European footballer of the 20th Century. Johan, R. I. P.
I couldn't believe just how fastly elegant Johan Cruyff was. Unbelievable. He is not your typical player who you dare to challenge with. When he is on the field, he is such a professor that would teach you some demos to play simple football in an actual motion as if he's communicate to his opponents in a sense that is not a football match as it looks, but rather a football session. Impressive. Johan Cruyff is such a great legend of the beautiful game.👑⚽🏆💯✨
This man was still the best player in the dutch eredivisie in 1984. At age 37 he made my fav club Feyenoord , champion of The Netherlands . He didn't had the speed anymore , but he was still able to see more , than the other players AND the people in the stadium did. It was unbelievable !!! This man is a true diamond of Football.
I'm going to share this video a tribute.. if it's okay with you.. beatiful video and a true legend.. Can't believe he's gone. I wasn't lucky enough to see him in action but.. still.
For me Johan Cruyff was not only very best footballer but also a great person especially as a father and as a husband. Rarely we see such harmony when a superstar who is very famous where people all around the world admire him, but Cruyff still manage and was able to keep this balance with his role as a husband for his lovely wife Danny Coster and as a father for his three children. It means that Hendrik Johannes Cruyff was truly a great man and can be a raw model for any famous football player now a days. A moment when Cruyff accepted his loss in the final of World Cup 1974 from West Germany where he greeted German players one by one and gently came to the tribune to recieve silver medal showed the world how big and charismatic he was. Again and again he told to the football fans that to win the footbal game is important but to win the football fan's heart is the most important thing. It is true, because when we remember World Cup 1974, one person stood up among the others, yes, he was Johan Cruyff, with his legendary double black strip orange jersey. Thanks Johan for made people love football because of you.
I can count how many times I have watched this video for many years, but this is the first time I do it with tears :'( :'( RIP Johan the best player in history
Cruyff was revolutionary. He has done more for football than anyone else. He changed how the game is played and for that i respect him very much and believes that he is on the level with maradona and pele.
I'm 62 and he is indeed the best player, together with Plel. Maradona is 2nd rate cheat, George Best was far better. Archie Gemmill's goal against Holland was far better than anything Maradona scored. I could think of a couple of Scottish players from the '60s who were should be in the top 20, Dennis Law, Jim Baxter (if only because of his keepy-upy against England), anyone of the Lisbon Lions.
I’m an English man, United fan. Seen Pele, Best, Maradona, Zidane, Messi and both Ronaldo 1 & 2…… no one compares to Cruiff……No one! The greatest footballer I have ever seen!
+Michail Ros Cruyff was one of the 2 greatest with Pelé. He was a visionary general, master of total football. Next up: Messi, Ronaldo, Puskas, Zidane, Di Stefano, Maradona, Beckenbauer, Garrincha, Eusebio, C.Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Platini, Meazza, Baresi, Van Basten, Zico, Muller, Romario, Maldini, Yashin....Best certainly not in top 10- exciting but underachieved and is overrated..
+Michail Ros Very well said! I completely agree. Cruijff is the Einstein of football, who brought the great transformation by introducing the concept of total football. First with Ajax and later with the dutch national team. He is simply on another level, compared to the other greats. Maradonna himself said that he has and had never seen a better team than the "Clockwork Orange"on the world championship in Germany in 1974.
My Footballing hero and Idol. My Greatest Player of All Time. An artist on the pitch. Was devastated when he left us! RIP Johan you are... 'Simply The Best'
For me simply the best as a football player, coach and a philosopher....but most of all a great human being whom have given us a lot to celebrate. A great loss for football, i hope we will give him the tribute he deserves...for him joy in life and the game was the most important aspect, let's keep his spirit alive!
If football is what it is today, we owe it largely to this genius named Johan Cruyff. He was brilliant, not only in the technical aspect, but also the tactical aspect. He was one of the main innovative and revolutionary game, along with Rinus Michels coach in the 70's. Cruyff was the brain and the heart that unforgettable team of Holland. The player concept of no fixed position, where attackers defended and attacked defenders, was, without a doubt, the greatest revolution in the history of football. And Cruyff, as an athlete, was the greatest exponent of this concept. His influence, over the years, has proved deeper and longer lasting than that of others players considered "geniuses", such as Pelé and Maradona. It is obvious that these were also extraordinary players, but what I'm dealing with here is about the influence exercised and the impact on football. In this aspect, Cruyff is far beyond what any other player I know. In addition, he was also a prodigy on the technical side, not to mention the lead he had over his teammates on the pitch. So before we discuss about "Who was the best", we must take into account all these factors. Regarding the supremacy of Cruyff on the current players, needless to say.
No one claimed he was a tactical genius. I would be very surprised if he ever became a successful manager. Yet his play on the field is that of a creative genius; he has reached a level that has never previously been reached.
Yes, you are right. But Cruijff was a tactical genius on the field as well. He made his team members play better and more efficient. This is what sets Cruijff apart from Messi, Maradona and Pele.
Philip Monagan messi is great thanks to Barcelona, how do you think Barcelona got so great? cruijff was the coach that started tiki taka football, before cruijff barca wasn't the world class team they are now
RIP Johan Cruyff was one of the best football players that have existed in the world. I send much love to his family, also for all the Dutch people and all fans of The Netherlands national football team. Also for fans of Barcelona FC. Johan is and always will be a great legend of world football. From Chile, South America.
@@peterdevalk7929 Ok Peter yoi got me, hehe. It would be possible that he smoked weed though right? Weed was hip and happening in the 70s and so was cruijff... might have helped him with his extreme nerves and the pressure
O, and you must mention he smoking part..... Wonderful…… Do you drive a car? In one year more cancer into this world then a smoker in his whole life. Do you go on vacation flying? 3 hours - more cancer then a smoker in 2 lifetimes. Look at yourself!
fabuleux joueur mon préféré , il possède tous les coups du football mais ce qui me plait le plus c'est l'élégance dans son mouvement je n''ai jamais vu d'autre joueur comme lui, merci MR CRUIJFF.
For all i know there are 2 players who have a signature move named after them. Zidane with his Swirl and Cruijff with the Cruijff turn, both unique! Maybe Bergkamp with whatever he did against Newcastle but i dont know how to call that except from magic and for sure once in a lifetime ;) But Cruijff is the overall master of Footbal! An unforgettable legend that will live on forever with his legacy on Holland 74, Ajax, Spain and the best team Barca ever had and the best ever team in history of Footbal. All made possible by NR.14!! Love you :)
From a Madridista, Thank you Johan Cruijff for introducing the beautiful football and the ultimate total football!! What A LEGENG!!!! ❤️❤️. Rest In Peace! And you will always be remembered.....
Criijff is the best ever. He started to play in a time that money became more important in the game and that nearly criminal tackles were allowed. He could avoid all of that because he was able to play with both feet, had an acceleration in the acceleration, could influence the speed of the game when required, outsmarted the opposite team and nearly his own team by far, thinks years ahead in terms of applicable tactics and longs term strategies to become the best of all time. When he would be a German player, he would have at least 3 world titles. He dealt also with the pressure of the political influence as a person and used his world famous brand to not only find the best players but to develop children also in their education. He is as Barcelona more than just a football team, much more than just a soccer player.
Football pornography... no dives no useless skills just an amazing talented plays one of the greatest football videos of all time Thanks a lot Johan is a GOD
Anyone else notice that he was fouled a lot during this video on plays but he would never fall unlike the dirt bags we consider as "stars" now a'days who flop all over the place. Btw the goal he scored at 5:26 was fucking majestic.
Johann Cruijff the BEST player ever of his time, he was so humble and a real engineer on the field... the heart of his teams, he did not need to win a Footbal World Championship to show his class and how he was the graetest To win a FWC is not a guarantee to be the best player in the world
Thanks for watching and sharing this with other people. It's amazing to be able to show this to the rest of the world. I haven't made any new video's since my last video about Jari Litmanen got rejected on CZcams because of copyrights. Even without any new video's I still get new subscribers. I want to thank those people and maybe... just maybe... I will try to post new stuff again!
Thank you for sharing Jeroen! I grew up playing futbol in the USA--- My coach told me about how the Dutch mastered 'total team play' or like 'clockwork'. It's been hard to find it online, so I'm glad you shared it. Gracias, ZI
top 3 of all time and the most revolucionary player in football history, the video have 14min, nice touch, great video, such amazing player, can even describe in words, respect from Brazil, genius, legend!!
Cruyff,one of the best in history,magnificent skills,very refined,elegant player,very intelligent,great vision,great understanding of the game,a complete player,leader,a legend
I don't care when famous people die but this was one big loss for me. I thought April Fools came early this year but it's true, my favorite and most badass football player of all time is gone. RIP No.14!
+Praveen Anto Excuse me: he was the greatest, because he created with Ajax and the Dutch national team the famous total football and later as coach with Barcelona he created the great tikkitakka football. In okther words: he is the Einstein of Football and the player who contributed the most to our beloved game of football.
He simply was the first in... too much to mention. Without Cruyff there would have been no Messi, no Zidane, no Van Basten, no Bergkamp, no Henry, no Zlatan etc... and somehow he thinks it's normal. What an artist!!!
+Mark Jan van den Brink The players you mentioned; they didn't grow up watching football, they grew up playing it - without seeing Cruyff play. Everyone is a creator, everyone is an artist;)
Cruyff is amazing, no doubt about it....but your comment is an example of who is truly the most underrated of all time by his omission...and who also states Cruyff was his idol.... Michael Laudrup! Whilst he'll be forever indebted to Cruyff he was slightly better in my opinion.
os fãs do bom futebol só tem q agradecer a Deus por ter lhe colocado entre nós e depois a vc por tudo q vc colaborou pelo esporte descanse em paz q Deus lhe recebe de braços abertos e abençoe seus familiares
Era un placer para los sentidos,verlo regatear y correr por el campo...que cambios de ritmo,que visión de la jugada...la elegancia vestida de futbolista.
Cruyff!!!! World's best mix of power with grace, strength with elegance, skill with artistry.... Maradona and Pele are best footballers, Johan.....the best football artist!!!!
Voor mij is deze Nederlander... de allergrootste ever! Ronaldo, Messi, Pele... allemaal prima spelers, maar deze hier is de meest complete, hij had snelheid, inzicht, gaf prima verre passes, kon dribbelen als de beste, en op alle mogelijke manieren scoren... en was nooit egoïstisch, hij gaf de bal af als het moest... Respect voor de grootste allertijden, zegt deze Belg! Johan Cruijff, R.I.P.
Belangrijker nog: Cruijff veranderde het hele spel, bracht complete teams naar ongekende hoogten en had het charisma van een ware krijger. Grondlegger van het Barca van nu, het dominante voetbal.
Cruijff was a very elegant, technical, fast, athletic, beautiful and insightful player. I think he's the best of all times. But you can't say he invented Dutch total football on his own. During his time we also had Feyenoord, lead by Willem van Hanegem. The best team in the word during the year 1970. During the greatest period of Dutch football ever, from 1969 until 1975, Ajax (Cruijff) and Feyenoord (Van Hanegem) were dominant and they also were leading the Dutch national team in 1974. However, they failed during the last game of that WC, because they should have won that world cup beyond any doubt.
The greatest football player the world has ever had passed. I hope you´ve received eternal life, because if there is one man that deserves that, it’s you. Rest in peace Johan.
My favourite player of all time, an absolute legend and giant of the game. R.I.P. still miss him now and always will. The man who made me fall in love with football.
I hate it when people compare Cruijff to God. I mean he's great, but he's not Cruijff.
R.I.P. Jopie
yeah I know, R.I.P cruijff
Lol Too true.
Brendon Chase, Classic 10/10!!!!!
Brendon Chase Best anecdote I ever heard on Cruyff
Brendon Chase he was a bitch thats it nothing special or something maradonna was a miljon times better than him or pele
“I trained for 4-6 hours a day at Ajax academy, but I also played on the streets for 4-6 hours a day. Where do you think I learned to play?” - Johan Cruyff
The streets.
Same
Mooi!
It’s different times but nowadays I would think every youth player signed up to any large club isn’t allowed to play street football. It may have been different in the 60’s though. We were friends with a former Rangers youth player in the mid 80’s who used to play football with us but he just kicked the ball way, he didn’t tackle or run with the ball.
When Cruyff died, french newspaper L'Equipe wrote :
"He was the game"
Best compliment ever, for such a great player.
For me, definitely the best player in football history. I miss him a lot
Maradona
@@mrporsche4236
Cruijff could play in any zone. Cruijff was more of an athlete than Maradona. Cruijff was more complete. Maradona was better with his hands.
Pelè
George Best
Your talking Absolutely nonsense
Love the fact that this video is 14 minutes long.
I totaly agree!!!
A 14 minute video is still long enough for this legend
ds37 hate the fact that it wasn’t longer.
it had to be
Once i have seen 14 likes in of the comments cheering him. Guess what? I didnt put like. I didnt want disturb him. ) RIP mr. Johan. 14
Cruyff was not only a genius as a player, but also as a coach, which is an astounding achievement.
He understood football better than anyone else. He invented total football after all
Infinite Void He didn't invent total football, his coach Rinus Michels did while cruyff was a player.
@@FearsomeVoid Not only that, but he probably invented the best football strategy ever
Najib Chevalier Cruijff invented total football. Michels just took the credit for it.
@@FearsomeVoid
It's the exact opposite actually
Cruyff, not only the fastest, most technical and strategic player that ever lived. His influence on the game is still seen in football every day!
European footballer of the 20th Century.

A football session. Indeed. He knows so exactly what he is doing and is so smart and lightning fast.
People like Cruyff will not be born again.
A person of another era, forever in our hearts.

Oh he did, I have seen all matches, the speed was definitely there.
Even in this era, Cruijff would be the best player in the world.
He was, is and will be the best in the world ever!
It's hard to believe. We knew it was coming but still.... Johan Cruijff is no longer with us. I'm sad....

Cruijff wasn't a footballer, HE WAS FOOTBALL
Grew up in Spain while he was playing for Barcelona. I was 10-12 years old. What a magnificent player. My favorite player of all time. Sad news.
Im 54 and he still is the best player ive ever seen
I'm 62 and he is indeed the best player, together with Plel. Maradona is 2nd rate cheat, George Best was far better.

Well said: an aspect of football that I loathe and contributes to my indifference when I think of football today.
If any current player replaced Cruijff in this video, it would be 14 minutes of them on the floor.
Nessuno come lui,eleganza allo stato puro
Pele, Maradona, Zidane, Messi, Best, Baxter - above them all stands Cruyff. A footballer without peer.
He was magical.
Lysdexia, WOW!!! Cruijff 4 Ever!!! Absolutely Brilliant, Magical!!! "UNTOUCHABLE" & A Very Good Man!!!! Greetings from Sydney, Australia!!!
agreed but not Messi !! Messi is the greatest cruyff after him
You know it!
this is why like Cruyff above all other great soccerplayers indeed....this IS art ! Much more graceful than others...
Zidane is the greatest by far
This man definitely deserved to win a world cup. No offense to Argentina but I think Netherlands would've won in 1978 if Johan would've played
Netherlands would have won the world cup even without Cruyff if Agentina had not cheated.
Toni Ramos that was against peru
Toni Ramos Argentina 3- Netherlands 1. They cheated 3 times??? ha, ha, ha
Gustavo Al and what do you mean 3 times in that tournament
***** if the rumors are true, they should have never lose the final twice in the 70's

I saw this and sometimes when messi plays reminds me a bit to cruijff playing RIP Johan Cruijff ⚽master.
Poetry in motion!
Best comment by far...
Keith Pieterse,
“Pythagoras in Boots"!!! Cruijff 4 Ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone else notice that he was fouled a lot during this video on plays but he would never fall unlike the dirt bags we consider as "stars" now a'days who flop all over the place. Btw the goal he scored at 5:26 was fucking majestic.
The legends sush as Johan Cruyff never die because always stay in oyr hearts!!!
Goodbye Johan Cruyff :( !!!
We forever will remember you!!!
Whenever I'm depressed I just watch this video and realize life can be so beautiful. Thanks Johan.
Johann Cruijff the BEST player ever of his time, he was so humble and a real engineer on the field... the heart of his teams, he did not need to win a Footbal World Championship to show his class and how he was the graetest
To win a FWC is not a guarantee to be the best player in the world
There still no words found in a dictionary, that describe the talent of this man.
Thanks for watching and sharing this with other people. It's amazing to be able to show this to the rest of the world. I haven't made any new video's since my last video about Jari Litmanen got rejected on CZcams because of copyrights.
Even without any new video's I still get new subscribers. I want to thank those people and maybe... just maybe... I will try to post new stuff again!
Jeroen E CONGRATULATIONS! BEEN FANTASTIC!
Jeroen E I love this video so much! Thank you for making it! You are my hero!
Awesome vid man.great job!
Lekker bezig kerel!
Thank you for sharing Jeroen!
I grew up playing futbol in the USA--- My coach told me about how the Dutch mastered 'total team play' or like 'clockwork'.
It's been hard to find it online, so I'm glad you shared it.
Gracias,
ZI

Élégance , such a beautiful player.
Cruyff,one of the best in history,magnificent skills,very refined,elegant player,very intelligent,great vision,great understanding of the game,a complete player,leader,a legend
I don't care when famous people die but this was one big loss for me. I thought April Fools came early this year but it's true, my favorite and most badass football player of all time is gone. RIP No.14!
One of the most beautiful videos I have ever watched!! Gracias Johan!!!!
Cruyff is the greatest European Football player of all time and he is up there with Pele and Maradona
+Praveen Anto Excuse me: he was the greatest, because he created with Ajax and the Dutch national team the famous total football and later as coach with Barcelona he created the great tikkitakka football. In okther words: he is the Einstein of Football and the player who contributed the most to our beloved game of football.
Zidane is the best european player.Cruyff is better than Pele but not Maradona.Messi is the best
No way, there has never been a player who had more influence in football than Cruijff. He was, is and will be forever the best in the world!
Zidane ?? Did you watch this??
zidane???????????? WTF!, not even in the same league
Magnific music mix for this excellent soccer player. Thanks a lot.
He simply was the first in... too much to mention. Without Cruyff there would have been no Messi, no Zidane, no Van Basten, no Bergkamp, no Henry, no Zlatan etc... and somehow he thinks it's normal. What an artist!!!
+Mark Jan van den Brink The players you mentioned; they didn't grow up watching football, they grew up playing it - without seeing Cruyff play. Everyone is a creator, everyone is an artist;)
Cruyff is amazing, no doubt about it....but your comment is an example of who is truly the most underrated of all time by his omission...and who also states Cruyff was his idol.... Michael Laudrup! Whilst he'll be forever indebted to Cruyff he was slightly better in my opinion.
He's the real GOAT and nobody can touch him, not even nowadays!
os fãs do bom futebol só tem q agradecer a Deus por ter lhe colocado entre nós e depois a vc por tudo q vc colaborou pelo esporte descanse em paz q Deus lhe recebe de braços abertos e abençoe seus familiares
I'm speechless. Football has just lost one of its greatest minds
Era un placer para los sentidos,verlo regatear y correr por el campo...que cambios de ritmo,que visión de la jugada...la elegancia vestida de futbolista.
Cruijff is so much more than football.
He’s a God, his legacy of total football lives on.
one of the few that changed football. Rest in peace
We love you Johan Cruijff
Be happy people, he had a great life!
His game came to an end, his legacy is still with us!
I miss him, even so.
"In a way, I'm probably immortal." - Johan Cruyff
He was way ahead of his time Rest In Peace legend
Cruyff!!!! World's best mix of power with grace, strength with elegance, skill with artistry.... Maradona and Pele are best footballers, Johan.....the best football artist!!!!
Voor mij is deze Nederlander... de allergrootste ever! Ronaldo, Messi, Pele... allemaal prima spelers, maar deze hier is de meest complete, hij had snelheid, inzicht, gaf prima verre passes, kon dribbelen als de beste, en op alle mogelijke manieren scoren... en was nooit egoïstisch, hij gaf de bal af als het moest... Respect voor de grootste allertijden, zegt deze Belg! Johan Cruijff, R.I.P.
Dankjewel.. R.I.P. Johan de beste voetballer en coach ooit
Belangrijker nog: Cruijff veranderde het hele spel, bracht complete teams naar ongekende hoogten en had het charisma van een ware krijger. Grondlegger van het Barca van nu, het dominante voetbal.
+bastaardzmuller precies
+Patrick Vermeirsch So true! Greatest player of all time! Greetings and respect from Germany. Groeten voor het land van de laterale denkers.
***** mooi gezegd
A view from England … my favourite player, ever. Plus he happened to change football forever.
The Beautiful Game, played by the most brilliant player ever to grace a pitch. Genius.
Johan Crujff, George Best, Pele: golden era for world football
beckenbauer, eusebio, charlton
Deep gratitude that I had the privilege to watch this live on television.
Finally a football video with decent music!
Cruijff was a very elegant, technical, fast, athletic, beautiful and insightful player. I think he's the best of all times. But you can't say he invented Dutch total football on his own. During his time we also had Feyenoord, lead by Willem van Hanegem. The best team in the word during the year 1970. During the greatest period of Dutch football ever, from 1969 until 1975, Ajax (Cruijff) and Feyenoord (Van Hanegem) were dominant and they also were leading the Dutch national team in 1974. However, they failed during the last game of that WC, because they should have won that world cup beyond any doubt.
Am I the only one, noticing how he's waltzing unimpressed past crunching tackles, that would produce a card in modern day football?
Merci Johan from France...merci pour le foot...ta vision...et l amour du ballon rond...on ne t oubliera jamais. Ajax 4 life !!!
The greatest football player the world has ever had passed. I hope you´ve received eternal life, because if there is one man that deserves that, it’s you. Rest in peace Johan.
Meest fascinerende voetballer ooit. Op eenzame hoogte. Waar Cruijff speelde gebeurde wat.
He was a magician.
one of the few videos in which the music is chosen impeccably and to better enjoy the beauty of Cruijff and its play. Thanks Jeroen
Wow, this must be the best footballvideo i have seen. In perfect harmony/sync with the music.
My favourite player of all time, an absolute legend and giant of the game. R.I.P. still miss him now and always will. The man who made me fall in love with football.
I love the way this video is exactly 14 mins.
The great Cruyff 14 >>
Cruyff was the master on the pitch The Cruyff turn was masterclass.🇳🇱❤❤
*_"Let the people come to the stadium and enjoy themselves."_*
- Johan Cruyff
There were many good football players every decade but he changed football and remains the best among the bests .
5:19 pure art
