Part of the Dutch team who taught us all how to play football properly. I remember the '78 final well. RIP.

Very much this. Loved his penalty technique where he used to just smash it into the roof of the net pretty much dead centre

When Muller scuffed the winner the rest of the world groaned.

You know how legendary that Dutch team was when even now without Googling I reckon I could name at least 15 players from that squad.
Probably my favourite international team ever
I probably couldn’t do 15 but
Cryuff,Van de Kerkoff x 2 van harnigan,Johnny Rep,Neeskins,Rensenbrink,Krol
That’s me over to you Mick or anyone else
Jack Taylor’s bottle to give a penalty against the home nation in the first few minutes will always be a lasting memory for me
So wanted the Dutch to win that day
I was almost 10 and now I’m almost 60
