Is it me or did we overrate cruyff's turn?

[ONEDUNME]

It's easy to overrate Cruyfs turn now that every fuckwit on a pitch can do it but it was the first time we'd seen it done. He was the inventor. Maybe people did it in training, who knows but he was the master in the same way that Beethoven was a master and any idiot who can play "DAH DAH DAH DAH" a la the fifth symphony, is not.

13. Cry Baby, 1990
Paul Gascoigne’s tears for his booking in the semi-final of Italia 90 did not simply endear the Geordie schemer to a nation, but laid the ground for the gentrification of football into the sport it has become.

What total and utter fucking bollocks.

It's just sad to see Zidane appearing only with that embarrassing incident. Why didn't they acknowledge his performance in the final of 1998 against Brazil?

All in all, what do you think Zidane will be remembered for? Even in 2006 he played superbly in the entire tournament just before that incident...
