I have read that some supporters are claiming to change the name of the stadium to Johann Cruyff. It would be fucking awesome.

You guys know if he smoked as a player too?

I heard there are some active players who smoke...

He smoked a pack a day.

True legend, rip.

RIP



Why Maradona though? He was only in the club for 2 seasons and injured quite a bit?

R.I.P.

:/ Usually sport and drugs (cigarettes) cant be combined

Rust in vrede!

This. You can find reasons to retire many of them, and it would be impossble to draw a line at some point.

And even if it wasn't the case, you can't retire numbers in Spain because the senior squad players must be numbers 1-25 (with 1, 13 and 25 reserved for keepers I think). So if you retire a number you are making your squad shorter.



Camp Nou (meaning "new stadium") is a silly name... but it's your silly name, and there's a lot of history behind it. I wouldn't change it.

In general, I don't like it when stadia are named after people. I rather have that reserved for training grounds, academy's, youth team stadia, etc. But that's just me.

Don't think he meant Barca's stadion, think he meant Ajax's.

RIP one of the best footballers and footballing minds of all times.
