Johan CRUYFF vs Lionel MESSI •THE MOVIE • Total Football Tactical Dribble 

Cruyjff is the Best player. He is the father of modern football✨✨🤍

Impossible to say who was better to be honest... Cruyff was the best of his era and Messi is the best of his era... both have advantages over each other in skills and both are top 5 all time players... both would be in my all time world 11 that's all I know.

As a player both were/are legends. However, Johan Cruyff also was a legendary coach who changed Barcelona and even how football was being played. Without him Barça and also Ajax (back in the years) would never have been the great clubs they became.

You cant compare players from different football eons that played in different football conditions & cultures. Cruyff played on those old muddy pitches, with heavier balls & heavier boots & where defenders could get away with neck-breaking tackles. Messi plays in the era of billiard ball pitches, lighter boots, lighter balls & any tackles above boot level draws an immediate red card. The increase in sports science means players are faster & the game played at a higher, quicker tempo. ( Look how quickly & smoothly the lighter balls glides across the plusher playing surface when Messi plays the ball compared to the slower ball movement of the ball when Cruyff plays the ball because of the heavier ball & the slower movement on a muddier surface). You can't magically transport Cruyff circa 1974 to square up against Messi circa 2015 in today's playing conditions & neither could you transport Messi back in time to Cruyff era to see how he would have squared up against Cruyff in the playing conditions Cruyff played in.

Messi is King of football but Johan cruyff is God of football

Both amazing, but I prefer Cruyff - his playstyle is more entertaining and elegant.

Cruijff è andato al Barcellona nel 1973 con i catalani terzultimi in classifica e fuori al primo turno di Coppa Uefa, trascinandoli alla vittoria della Liga che mancava da 14 anni, ma probabilmente il merito del suo rendimento fu di Michels che senza Johan annaspava in zona retrocessione dopo aver fatto ridere pure gli anni precedenti, o perchè no, dei compagni, fuoriclasse mondiali quali Juan Carlos, Sotil, Rexach, ecc. Cruijff ha dimostrato di saper trascinare ed emergere sia in un sistema collaudato sebbene diverso nel corso degli anni (l'Ajax che perse in finale col Milan era profondamente diversa da quella che sconfisse la Juve nel 73) con pressioni diverse (in nazionale come noto le pressioni sono differenti), sia in una squadra disastrata e perdente cronica. Messi tutto ciò non lo ha fatto: ha fallito per 10 anni in nazionale nonostante compagni di alto livello dimostrandosi incapace di unire attorno a sè un gruppo e dimostrandosi incapace pure di essere un leader tecnico visto che quando c'è stato bisogno di lui è puntualmente sparito lasciando l'incombenza di togliere le castagne dal fuoco pure al pensionato Palermo e il carneade Bolatti, senza i quali non sarebbe andato nemmeno al mondiale in Sudafrica. Tutti questi fallimenti con l'albiceleste nonostante sia stato fatto di tutto per metterlo a suo agio tatticamente: ala, falso nueve, seconda punta, trequartista, ma il risultato è sempre stato tragicomico. Paragonare un giocatore da discesa con uno che ha giocato un mondiale 1974 stratosferico e ha rivoltato in quel modo il Barcellona come ha fatto Cruijff, secondo me è folle. Se Messi andrà che ne so all'Amburgo o alla Fiorentina o in un'altra nobile decaduta e la riporterà a vincere il campionato compirà un grande passo in avanti, ma finchè rimarrà il solito giocatore fenomenale quando tutto va bene e invisibile quando le cose vanno male sarà sempre la solita vecchia storia che ci cantiamo e suoniamo da anni.

Two very intelligent players who made football look like Art and also scored many exceptional goals. Cruyff is for me the most graceful and effective player ever.

Fantastic video! Most people compare Messi with Maradona but to me Messi is the modern Cruyff.

Both legends and a joy to watch.

It seems that in the 60s and 70s the defenders had a licence to kill. Even a splendid player of modern times like Messi would have tremendous difficulty getting past those without being assassinated. Cruiff seemed to be impervious to vicious mauling.

Legend flows legend ( Barca rule)

Cruyff genius

Messi é o melhor, pois 80% das suas arrancadas fazendo fila termina em gol. Já o Cruyff, eu diria umas 50%. Meu top 10 da história, em termos de elegância e genialidade, não em números, são: 1. Pelé 2. Messi 3. Ronaldo Nazario 4. Maradona 5. Cruyff 6. Ronaldinho Gaúcho 7. George Best 8. Di Stefano 9. Van Basten 10. Roberto Baggio

Impossible, Johan Criujff superstar et numéro 1 de tous les temps.

Con la defensiva q había el los tiempos de johan a messi lo harían pedazos

Messi the best on history

Cruyff wins hé is the maker of how football is today

There can only be one God of football, the real genius in every way...........Johan Cruijff!!!! The best the world has ever seen and will see!!

Great movie man!!! Love this

Fantastisch om te zien,de twee beste en belangrijkste voetballers aller tijden in een film.👍🙏☀️

I'm Baziliam , I saw pele , mardona and Cruyff and now messi and Ronaldo , All we have of those guys of 1960-1980 are just a little bit of what they played , For me That saw Cruyff playing , maradona and pele i make a rank in my opinion 1-Pelé 2-Cruyff 3-Maradona 4-Messi 5-CR7

Amazing players Hmm... I choose cruyff

Crujiff😍

Cruyff is better.Thqnks for the video bro.

Great short movie bro, but i still think Cruyff is better

Кройфф= Месси!!! БРАВО BRAVO !!!

One must admit that Messi is playing against technically improved defenders. I am not a Barca or Argentina fan but I truly think he is the greatest of all time.

I died when i started this video THE MUSIC IS SO HARD MAN!

Cruijff, Cruijff, Cruijff ... not only stronger, but more elegant

Is Messi's playing style（after 2015） similar Johan's it?

En accélérer c est mieux on ne peut pas juger sur ces images lequel est le meilleur , meme genre de dribble , but a peu près comparable , Un point seulement mettons cruyff et messi sur une piste d athlestisme et demandez leur de faire un sprint sur cinquante metre, cruyff avait a son epoque un temps comparable que le meilleurs sprinteur noirs américain Messi? Le jeu de tête ? Le rôle défensive de l un et de l autre ? Ah si cruyff avait un moteur de ferrari il était coupler avec un moteur de rolls Royce car il pouvait vous faire encore des course folles en fin de match

Messi dribles mais curtos,cruyff mais longos,pelo carrocel que parou o mundo,fico com cruyff.

Messi is slightly above medium level (although greatly overrated). Cruyff was simply brilliant. That sums it all.

cruyff should be high rated he best payer than maradona ,R9, zidane, de stefano ,puskas and he made the footall rule total football tiki taka he made many legends cruyff to guardiola to messi. messi is argentinian cruyff but he is not better than messi and pele but he is only little diffrence like cristiano

God johan

Messi is better but Johan Cruijff changed football.

Messi is the best of all time

Messi I think has a slight advantage over Cruijff when it comes to dribling due to Messi short lenght. But in overal I say Cruijff has more value and efficiency when on the field. Football is not about dribling past defender all the time(but yes its nice to watch it and eventually it gets more media attention)...lets not forget its a team effort. Cruijff had a better vision and was most of the time 2 or 3 steps ahead when it come to insight for what needs to happen to create chances. I do not forget the fact that Messi also has a great vision and passing that is out of this world, but looking at these qualities I prefer Cruijff. Watch his famous outside foot passing at pinpoint accuracy. Mister Johan Cruijff is the one on my team if I had to choose.

Cryff is the best

Cruyff

Never mind about science and technology does not mean anything at all

Messi es mejor

curryf

Cruiff Mejor

Cruyff was better, he and Pele. Just behind those two Messi and Maradona. Then Beckenbauer and Van Basten.

You can compare the have got it a lot easy now that's nonsense when say you carnt compare rubbish

Cruyff was more aesthetically please to watch.

Messi una zurdita rapida y habil como maradona..pero por favor no hay comparacion ,Cruyff es con pele ,di estefano y Schaffino los mejores de la historia por lejos.Messi no tiene pase filtrado y milimetrico ,ni los cambios de ritmos que distorsiona el espacio y el tiempo de la Relatividad de Einstein, ni el futbol inteligente de Cruyff. Leonel es bueno pero hubieron asaz jugadores como el y es simplemente es un corredor comparado con el holandes que tenia un futbol mas inteligente,mas completo,mas potente ,mejor rush u dribling en marcha y jugaba los 90 minutos sin lagunas. Messi como maradona fuero creados por Marketing y da asco esta comparacion..A los jovenes que vieron poco tal vez se le puede engañar o embaucar

messi is way better than cruyff even tho he’s a legend, comparing the two eras and different technology, rules and difficulties and challenges messi is absolutely insane especially that there’re many more professional players in this modern time.

MESSI IS BETTER

Messi is better than Cruyff

Cruijff is the best
