some interesting comments about LVG, Cruyff and Wenger from Bergkamps book................
So Bergkamp worships Cruyff as most dutch footballers do, thinks Wenger is great because they were successful together and presumably had a falling out with LVG at some stage so doesn't rate him? Anything actually objective or meaningful to go on beyond some ramblings of an ex-pro?
rSol doesn't like Deadwood at all - calling him manipulative and scheming - does that opinion hold equal validity?
Best football book I've ever read hands down. Gives a real insight into how he thinks on the pitch and how he views the game.
The format really makes it too, its an almost 300 page back and forth interview with him as opposed the traditional ghost writer as narrator bull****.
And Bergkamp rates Van Gaal. But his preferred working methodology is different than his. It was Van Gaal's idea at Ajax to move Bergkamp from being an okay winger to being a shadow striker. Bergkamp knows he has a huge debt to Van Gaal.
