Over the last six months Castrol's team of 80 analysts have assessed all 540 games from 1966 to 2006 - spending over 3,000 hours logging close to one million player movements to uncover the Castrol Index scores for players past and present. From these results, Castrol has identified the top performing players from the past 40 years of FIFA World Cup™ action.
Goal.com’s exclusive series continues as we profile Johan Cruyff, who led his team of Dutch masters agonisingly close to ultimate glory in 1974.
Pelé, Maradonna, Beckenbauer, Ronaldinho (maybe Messi in the future) won the World Cup, but this great LEGEND not!
Also The Netherlands not, but we delivered great players in the past years! Cruijf, Neenskens, Koeman, Gullit, Rijkaard, Kluivert, Davids, Van Nistelrooy, Van der Sar (GK) and many more...
Hope this year we can finally lift the cup on 11 july!!!!!!!
Then Sneijder, Van Persie, Van der Vaart and Robben will become the absolute legends! :D
They may win this year. I hope so because they play attacking good football. My opinion, at its best, the world's best football nation. they showed us their best in Euro two years ago, where they only had one miss; against Russia.
