Bit of a footballing purist snob in his later years but his (and Rinus Michels') influence on the modern game cannot be understated - way, way more important than his nifty turn.
A giant of the game.
RIP #14
RIP Johan Cruyff

Wow, the best Dutch footballer for sure. Total Football in WC 74. Dominant in the 70's. Dude was elegant, skilled, a magician and carried his nation during those years.
RIP Johan.
RIP Johan.

My father talked of him as the greatest player of the time when I was a kid.
