What is 'Total Football'? Can a dutchman explain

Total Football (Dutch: totaalvoetbal) is a tactical theory of football in which any outfield player can take over the role of any other player in a team. It was made famous by the Netherlands National Football Team in the 1974 FIFA World Cup.

It is a system of fluid positioning in which players win zero cups

it's a buzzword

Sometimes you kick a ball really hard and bits fall off. You'll have to fix it and once it is complete it is a 'total football'

>>75132005
In reality it just meant any outfield player can finish.

Beckenbauer destroyed the reputation. He was simply better than Cruyff. We all know this.
