New arrival: Franz Beckenbauer

Franz Beckenbauer is a legend. He is known, in short, as the only one who has won the World Cup both as a player and as a manager. When he won the World Cup and the European Championship he was captain of West Germany, while he led his club called Bayern Munich to three successive European Cups and the European
European Cup Winners' Cup. 

Beckenbauer is remembered not only for medals, but for the style and innovation he brought. They didn't call him "Emperor Franz" and "The Kaiser" for nothing. The arrogance in his play reflected how he was always in command. He was in command because of the way he organized and changed the game, the way he revolutionized it by inventing the role of the attacking sweeper.
Nobody thought that a sweeper should be alone in his opponents' half of the field or scoring?! Until Beckenbauer showed us. He showed us central defense and powerful long runs.   The element of surprise coming from this tactic to the modern game became his trademark.
