on the road to nowhere in particular

Great exponent of total football and the mastermind behind the success of Barcelona from his time there to the present day.

Not so sure about his managerial skills though. He tried to play Gary Lineker as a winger.

Actually it was on the radio, he gave up smoking in 1990 after heart surgery

Fantastic player though, one of the best lost to a horrible disease

Took a stand against the Argentinian junta's human rights record and refused to go to the 1978 World Cup.

Not just a great player and manager, but also a true giant.

First time I tried it I kicked myself so hard I nearly broke my own leg. Never could do it so became a defender

Shame he never got to lift the world cup but came very close to it. A great player and a sad loss to the world of football.

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

I was never into football (I'm still not but I know a bit more now) but in the early '80s I found out a lot about Johan Cruyff.

I was temping and got an assignment to do the audio typing for a script for a football video being made to teach Americans to play. It was broken down into sections about different players. I learned about the Cruyff manoeuvre where he turns the ball.

I don't remember anything about any of the other players featured but I did watch the video showing his move. He seemed to be an artist on the pitch.

I was in a pub when I found out about him passing

A true great of the game, and to have a turn named after you well what can you say.

I knew he had been unwell. Gods football team of cruyff, Eusebio, Bobby Moore , best

Wow
