Ajax, Barcelona, Cruyff by Frits Barend and Henk Van Dorp | The ABC of an Obstinate Maestro

Ajax, Barcelona, Cruyff by Frits Barend and Henk Van Dorp | The ABC of an Obstinate Maestro

This football biography includes candid interviews, conducted between 1974 and 1997, with Johann Cryuff talking about how he learnt his trade, going on to play football for Barcelona and Ajax. He also talks about the philosophy behind total football, the driving force behind the great Dutch side of the 1970s, and a style of football many top teams attempt to emulate today. Then there was the eight years of success as manager of Barcelona, one of the most stressful jobs in the game, and back to Ajax, where, with his emphasis on youth and home-grown talent, he put together another team of superb ability.
