Glad to hear you say that, as I've just ordered it off Amazon. He always seems very sage on the Guardian Football podcasts.

You never know. I can see Tom Cruise as Johann Cruyff, with Bill Murray as Rinus Michels. Trying to develop Total Football whilst a convervative member of the KNVB, perhaps played by an English actor (to make them a baddie), tries to stick with more conventional methods.
EDIT: BTW, I know Tom Cruise looks nothing like Johann Cruyff. They wouldn't care.

I hope you are aware of the blog "zonal marking" which draws a lot from that book and is updated pretty much daily..
