Barcelona Team made up of some of the game's biggest names

Johan Cruyff's much-anticipated autobiography is soon to hit the shops and supporters around the world may well be interested in one particular extract above all others.

In his posthumously released book, the Dutch legend gives a fascinating insight into his favourite players and teams, with some of football's biggest stars aligned in his all-time best XI.

Amongst those selected include figures of great importance in the Spanish game, including Real Madrid icon Alfredo Di Stefano and ex-Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola - whom Cruyff coached at the Camp Nou from 1990-1996.

Elsewhere, a smattering of fellow Dutch teammates from his playing days are joined by household names Diego Maradona, Pele, Garrincha and Franz Beckenbauer in a strong-looking team full of attacking intent.

Cruyff's side reads as follows: Lev Yashin; Carlos Alberto, Beckenbauer, Pep Guardiola, Ruud Krol; Alfredo di Stéfano, Bobby Charlton, Garrincha; Maradona, Pelé, Piet Keizer.
