Johan Cruyff

In my teams, the goalie is the first attacker, and the striker the first defender. I always threw the ball in, because then if I got the ball back, I was the only player unmarked. Choose the best player for every position, and you’ll end up not with a strong XI, but with 11 strong 1’s. Quality without results is pointless. Results without quality is boring. What is speed? The sports press often confuses speed with insight. See, if I start running slightly earlier than someone else, I seem faster. Playing football is very simple, but playing simple football is the hardest thing there is.
