Johan Cruyff

[Maria]

Agree he is a genius but I think he is the type of person that loves a bit of conflict and it is difficult to have someone like that in the club unless you are using their opinion heavily as Laporta did.

Cruyff is the one who loves conflict, yet the one who doesn't speak with him, Rijkaard and Pep is Rosell..the same man who says that Cruyff is a bad person, Pep is a liar, Frank someone that is easily manipulated and the Boixois Nois are good guys. It's easier to have someone like that running your club that someone that is the father of modern Barcelona respected by the cules.

He won't be at the stadium so see the match between Barcelona and Ajax due to Rosell

I was sad the first time I found out, but after seeing that Rosell insulted him again in an interview and yesterday invited him at the dinner between the Ajax directors and Barca directors in his 100th episode of hypocrisy and today, after Cruyff declined, said that he isn't sorry that he didn't came I would rather have him away from this Barca. He will come again when we will need him, like he did in '88 and in '03.

Yeah, he said he won't set foot on Camp Nou while rosell is still there. But even after the comments, the club invited Cruyff to the match and to a dinner that'll happen before the match. Pure hypocrisy from rosell, imo.

Spot on. I disliked Rosell already, but I just can't get to terms with the facts a lot of socios seem to like him? I read loads of negative stuff about Rosell, not just here, and somehow internally there seems to be no problem at all with him staying until 2016. Unbelievable...

Cruijff = legend.

 

[Chainsaw]

Cruyff is always right, even when he's wrong.

Cruyff also comes off as childish sometimes, I now he doesnt get along with Rosell but some of the things he says at times are just pure childish.

Care to explain? I agree he likes conflict, but I don't recall him being childish. I may be biased

In other news, Cruyff continues to bash Neymar. First he was saying that signing Neymar is a mistake. Now he changed the discourse and claims that it's easier to defend against Neymar than Messi. A real scientific breakthrough over here, ain't it, by stating it's harder to mark the best player in the world.

 

[FCBarca]

Strange to continue to pick out Neymar, wonder if this quote was taken out of context etc...Otherwise, seems like he's just taking a shot at Rosell thru Neymar...The intention might be understandable but why single out Neymar?...Would love to read/see the actual interview/question, better still a translation from a native speaker depending on which language he addressed it in

 

[DonAK]

He also added this though;

Johan Cruyff: "Neymar has made a good start. His quality should help him link up with Messi or Xavi, although we'll have to wait and see."

 

[FCBarca]

Yeah, it was taken out of context...typical really...The interview was on Ara

 

[Barcaman]

And his constant whining over Neymar signing this summer was also taken out of context? Good to see him backpedal a bit though.

Sandro was faced with 2 difficult choices this summer. Had to replace Tito at a short notice (we were already in pre-season) + biting the bullet on Neymar. Sad to see, he's not getting much credit for either of those decisions.

Looking very good so far I should say. Cruyff will whine no matter what though. Because, that's basically what he does ever since Nunez sacked him.

 

[FCBarca]

You can say the same thing about Sandy, Bojan...I don't recall Cruyff rubbishing the team's success when they won under Rosell...unlike you know who when Laporta was Prez

It wasn't a stretch to be concerned that Leo & Neymar might not get on, I'm just glad they do and that Cruyff isn't taking any shots at Neymar...That's the kind of thing Rosell would do, let's be honest

 

[Barcaman]

I don't see that many supporters of Sandro though. They certainly don't treat him as some kind of deity.
Looking at the opposite camp, you'll see an army of people blindly following whatever Cruyff says.

I firmly believe Cruyff tarnished his well-earned status as Barca legend by meddling in daily politics and taking sides.
