Quite devastating, especially considering he was saying he felt 2-0 against cancer last month. R.I.P.

The way he talked about football made you listen, he saw the game like no other. He will live on through the style of football he loved.

RIP

"I remember my move to Spain was quite controversial," he said. "People said I was going to a fascist country. The president of Ajax wanted to sell me to Real Madrid. But I was born shortly after the war, though, and was taught not to just accept anything. Barcelona weren't at the same level as Madrid football-wise, but it was a challenge to play for a Catalan club. Barcelona was more than a club"

- Johan in a documentary on the Catalan TV Channel TV3.

One of the absolute greatest, and, most important, a very intelligent person: about football he really knew everything, even without playing it (contrariwise to some others who, outside the pitch, are a total waste, like Maradona..).
A genious and a honour for FC Barcelona and the whole world of football.

Thank you for everything, Johan Cruijff

Just logged in to pay tribute to this great man.
Just like with Tito, there were things which I couldn't agree less with him, but we all have flaws. There are very few bad memories, and thousands of wonderful ones.
For me he's always been the greatest man in history of football. Maradona and Pele are tools, Cruyff was not only a genius player, but also a brilliant coach. He was an intellectual in every positive sense of this word. He was a visionary. He's made football an art.
Well, I think Pep and Xavi said enough of him over the years.

Farewell, the Flying Dutchman. Thank You for bringing beauty and passion into our lives. Thank You for loving Barcelona and Catalonia.

25 years ago Cruyff's 1st La Liga title as Barca manager

He would go on and lead Barca to 4 consecutive titles. Feat no other Barca manager accomplished before nor after his time.

Every so often, out of nowhere, I remember that he's no longer with us; today is one of those days. What a loss to the world.

A beautiful Footballer, a genius mind and a caring, genuine man.
