Hard to imagine a legend of the game going before his time. Live every day people. Thanks for the memories, JC!

Cruyff, along with Rinus Michels, did more to shape the modern game than anyone else. Guardiola was Johan's favourite player and he hasn't done too bad carrying on the legacy.

Who can forget those wonderful days in the 70s?

Well said, The greatest team never to win a world cup.

I always believe Cruyffs team mate Neeskens should have been appointed as the Australian manager after Hiddink left.

Nice tribute to Cruyff from Amor on the AU site.

Amor regards him as the best influence on his career.
