– He died 68 years Johan Cruyff, died of lung cancer that afflicted him since last October. One of the best players and coaches of all ages, in both roles he managed to make his mark and a legacy that could change the concept and the way of thinking football. here are the 10 phrases famous of the famous “14″ of the football history:
1- “The worst thing is to win 1-0 , playing random , all backward, mistreating the ball, looking for the foul, in the belief that this is the way, the formula, the philosophy “
2- “on the field is important to give freedom to the players, although within a scheme. the maximum distance that a player must travel to be ten meters. freedom is admissible only if produces maximum yield of talented players “
3 – ” what we should teach the kids is fun, touches on the ball, creativity, invention. at the root of it all is that kids should have fun playing football. creativity is not at odds with the discipline “
4 – “it is not the good against the bad, and make sure that the good wins. the meaning of football is that the best win in the field , regardless of history, prestige and budget”
5 – “ one show lower results in disaffection for football. Just look at the steps of the majority of Italian stadiums . People are not stupid: if you do not give them anything, do not go to the stadium. And very often louder cries empty bleachers of a full flight of steps. 20 are too many teams, all born to win something and in the end a win, and the others remain disappointed “”
6 – “Football is basically two things. The first: when you have the ball, you have to be able to pass it correctly. the second: when you pass it, you have to know how to check. If you can not control, nor can the move “
7 – “Because you could not beat a richer clubs? I I have never seen a bunch of money score a goal ”
8 – “ No team so little runs like Barcelona : always have the ball. they decide the pace of the game and decide where you play. There’s only one ball, and those who have he decides “
9 – ” Pirlo ? Great, has a higher vision and with a shot puts the ball where he wants. football is played with the head. If you do not have your head … the sunglasses are not enough legs “
10 – ” it is sickening compare Messi to Maradona . Who saw Maradona play if you enjoyed and all who are watching today should be enchanted by Leo Messi “
And finally we end with Two anecdotes who have seen the ball three times protagonist of gold, in both roles he held very well.
in the first is still the player , a veteran who meets a young Jorge Valdano (legend of Real Madrid), which recounts: “about the middle of the second half, the game was interrupted for a foul unimportant and Johan began to protest. Since the referee did not stop to give him explanations, I went to tell him that if he wanted, could also leave the whistle. I took the opportunity to suggest to Cruyff to keep for themselves that ball and give us another, because in that game we had some rights too. He looked at me with a certain air misericordevole and asked my name. “Jorge Valdano,” I replied. “And how old are you?” He continued. And I obediently: “Twenty-one.” He made a face that meant: who knows where we will end up with these young people today, and from its glorious thirty years dropped me a dialectical slap: “Boy, at twenty-one years of Cruyff gives her” “
As a coach: ” One day Romario three days he asked me for permission to go to the carnival in Rio. I replied: “If tomorrow marks the second goal, I will grant ‘two days of rest more than the others.” The next day, Romario scored 2 goals in the first 20 minutes and soon after scoring the second he asked me out. I asked him what had happened and approached, saying to me: “Mister, my plane to Rio leaves in an hour.” I had no choice and I kept my promise “
