Mein Spiel

"I stand for an era in which it was proven that football can be both attractive and successful," said Johan Cruyff, reflecting on the 1970s. Like no other, Cruyff embodied dynamic, passionate attacking football. As captain of the Dutch national team, at Ajax Amsterdam, and later at FC Barcelona, he achieved legendary success with this tactic. The magical player with the number 14 was the founder of the football philosophy that has been perfected in recent years, especially by his student Pep Guardiola. In his posthumously published autobiography, Cruyff, who is mentioned in the same breath as superstars like Pelé, Beckenbauer, Maradona, and Messi, recounts the glorious stages of his career as a player and coach. "My Game" is one of the smartest books written about football in the last few decades.
