Johan Cruijff

The greatest dutch footballer.

Lost his last match against cancer.

Passed away yesterday at the age of 68.

 

"I'm sure that the way I do it, is the way to do it, else I won't do it this way"

"Without the ball you can't win"

"When we have the ball, they can't score"

"Coincidence is logical"

"You have to shoot, else you can't score"

"To win you have to score one goal more than your opponent"

"Speed if often confused with insight, when I start running earlier than the other, I seem faster"

"You will only see it when you get it"

"Every disadvantage has its advantage"

"Football is simple but its difficult to play simple"

"If you can't win, you have to make sure you don't lose"

"If Italians get one chance, they score twice"

"Football is simple, you're to late or on time: if you're to late, you have to start earlier"

"Sometimes something's got to happen, before something is going to happen"

"In a way, I'm probably immortal"

 

April 25th 1947 - March 24th 2016

Sad news :( He was one of the best footballers of all time and always played in the right way. I always used to break out the Cruyff turn all the time as a kid :D
