Was Franz Beckenbauer Really As Good As People Said He Was?

Franz Beckenbauer is the most important player in the history of German football and it's not even close! Der Kaiser revolutionized the game dropping from the midfield to a libero position and made both Bayern Munich and Die Mannschaft the powerhouses they are today. If you've heard the tales but never seen Franz Beckenbauer play, you have to watch this!

They don't make players like Franz anymore, he mainly played as a libero which meant he was responsible for the distribution of ball on the pitch whilst maintaining defensive stability. The talent you need to possess to play in that position was immense and he had loads of that.

​@Charlie Nolan Offside exists since 1925, I don't know why this myth exists that offside wasn't a thing in the old days. In fact it was even harsher back then, because before the 90s a striker couldn't even be level with the defender, they had to be physically behind them. Nowadays strikers can at least be level with the defenders, as long as they aren't ahead of them.

[@CoachNiklas]

Franz Beckenbauer has to be one of the true all time greats. He owned the libero position and made it "his". He had wonderful passing ability, read the game extremely well, great vision and tremendous leadership skills. I really liked that german team, of the early, middle seventies. I also have to mention the midfield maestro, Gunther Netzer, who was so good it was ridiculus. His long range passes, especially with the outside on the foot was works of art ... Great nostalgia ...
