The former Barcelona boss, Johan Cruyff, has talked about the difference of style between his former team and their bitter-rivals, Real Madrid
The Dutchman is fascinated by Barcelona’s philosophy and their style of play. He highlighted the strength of the Catalans and admitted what they do on the pitch is not something that any other club can produce. He believes that
is precisely what separates the two Spanish giants from one another.
“In football it is harder to make things look easy and to do them well, that’s the difference between Barcelona and other teams.”
Cruyff is not impressed with the way Real Madrid approach the game and how they don’t give much regard to their youth system.
The former Barca player mentioned that Madrid‘s way of play and behaviour bothers him a lot. He talked about the Catalan’s three maestros, Xavi Hernandez, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Lionel-Messi-c22296 and Andres Iniesta and how they behave on and off the pitch.
He believes they are exemplary figures in the world of football.
“What bothers me about Madrid today is their manner in behaviour and in their way of educating players. Look at how Xavi, Iniesta and Messi behave, who understand normal people on the street.”
The 65-year-old then turned his attention to the Primera Division and the huge gap that currently exists between Barca and Los Blancos.
Jose Mourinho’s men have fallen further behind their arch-rivals Barcelona. After their 3-2 defeat at the hands of Malaga last week, the defending champions have now lost any hope of retaining their title crown.
It is a huge gap to breach and as a result of that it is more likely that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 will win La Liga this season.
Moreover, Cruyff is shocked with the difference of points between the two clubs and believes the suspense is now over. He also added that this huge difference is not good for the image of La Liga.
“It’s a terrible difference. It is honestly not good for the League. Maybe Barca’s fans are happy, but a championship is valued by the tension and excitement that it can create. Here, the suspense is over.”
Barcelona are now 16 points above their bitter-enemies, Real Madrid.
