Don Revie had made Leeds United the best football team in the country in the 1960s and 70s. Upon his departure, Leeds had ‘done a Leeds’ multiple times since and after numerous financial disasters they were a generation out of the top flight. They needed somebody to come along and pick them out of the mire. So, they went Loco and it got back to the Premier League.

Don Revie built the foundations of Leeds United. They were back in the big time, they’d got their first shot across the bow with a title challenge and an FA Cup final and now they’d built up a reputation. Dirty Leeds were here, and they just might have been the best team in England.

Regardless of where they might lie in the English football pyramid: Leeds United are a big football club. This is the objective truth no matter your club allegiances in the year of 2024. Rewind 70 years they were nothing. They weren’t even as good as Huddersfield Town and even Bradford City had won an FA Cup. And that’s in their West Yorkshire boundaries. Then Don Revie turned up: This is the BIRTH OF LEEDS.

We all love Der Klassiker, don’t we? When the biggest German sides battle it out: Bayern Munich and Borussia Monchengladbach.
Wait, you expected to see another Borussia didn’t you? Whilst Dortmund and Bayern participate in the game known as the Klassiker now, it isn’t the Original Klassiker. No chance, because in the 1970s Bayern’s fiercest rivals were Gladbach, and they were competitive in a way that Dortmund have never been.

Red Bull gives you wings, as the marketing strapline goes. Certainly, Red Bull has had the ability to give wings to several non-descript football clubs you might never have heard of: from the MetroStars to Austria Salzburg and SSV Markranstadt. But have they given football the wings to fly away from tradition and community that it was founded on, to create something rotten to the core?

There hasn’t been a more unbelievable rise in modern day football from continental Europe. At the start of the 21st century, Union Berlin were broke, they were in the fourth tier and they needed their fans to re-build their stadiums. But since, they’ve got up, up and up right to the summit of the Bundesliga and have participated in every UEFA competition. This is the story of how they did it.

The Czechs have been successful at the top of international football: precisely four of them that made up their 1976 European Championship squad. Since the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, not so much.
Except for two glorious summers that straddled the new millennium so delicately. This is the story of a new age of Czech football, of 1996 and 2004, the Outsiders of Europe’s Twin Peaks.

Despite being known as the European Brazilians, Yugoslavian football had a habit of being nearly men. But in the late 1980s, when the country was at breaking point, they were blessed with the greatest crop of players ever. They won the world youth championship, almost won a World Cup and, for the majority of their players, got to taste European Cup success in the Final Days of Yugoslavia.

Wales, the red-headed stepchild of British football. They could never have the glory or expectation of England, they couldn’t even lay claim to the history or moments of hope that belongs to Scotland.
When England were winning the World Cup, when Scotland were going to major tournaments: Wales watched them on the telly. They spent a literal lifetime in the wilderness, between 1958 and 2016. This is a film about those times.

They were never supposed to win the Champions League. They had a new manager in a foreign land, they lost Michael Owen and Steven Gerrard almost followed him. They were seconds away from elimination against Olympiakos, were up against it in Turin and in West London and that’s before we get to Istanbul, where Six Minutes of Magic helped lift Liverpool’s fifth European Cup.

The Boot Room was dead. Kenny Dalglish burned out. Now what was there for Liverpool? The Premier League was sneaking up on them, Europe was back and they needed to be in the mix to receive all the heightened riches, fame and glory that came with it.
Instead, it was a decade to forget in terms of trophies. In terms of entertainment value? Well, it was spicy to say the least: this is Anfield Spice—and Liverpool in the 90s.

Any normal football club would’ve folded. A stadium disaster that left supporters dead, a European Cup final lost and the lineage of great coaches culled abruptly. 1985 was a formative year for Liverpool.
They had been carried by the weight of the Boot Room, through Shankly, Paisley and Fagan and were now picking up the pieces of a near 30-year footballing odyssey. What next? This is The Last of the Boot Room.

Total Football was dead. The eighties killed all hope, with its wing-back system, sweepers in the backline and rampant hooliganism and stadium disaster. Football needed a bit of light injected back into it, and so too did Ajax.
Johan Cruyff came back, and tried, but was quickly lured away by Barcelona again. Up step Louis van Gaal, a football war of philosophical ideas and Ajax’s Total Recall to the top of the European game.

Pele called football “The Beautiful Game”, Cruyff declared “winning is an important thing,” and Mourinho said “if you have a Ferrari and I have a small car, to beat you in a race I have to break your wheel or put sugar in your tank”.
Let’s forget about that last lunatic and focus more on the guy who said the second thing: Johan Cruyff. The leader of Total Football, the thoroughfare that explains the history of football tactics. This documentary hopes to explain the Totality of Total Football.
