Yes and the annoying thing for me about 78 was that Cruyff decided not to go. That was a great blot on his copybook. Clough had a right pop at him for it. Surely Holland would have won that world cup with him there.
His family was threatened with kidnap and he was threatened himself which is why he didn't go. Family before football. Played in the qualifiers though.
Did the kidnap thing come in later because he definately never mentioned that as the reason at the time. HE said he didnt want to be way from his family for a long period like in 74.
