Cruyff: Barcelona doesn't need Neymar

Former Barcelona coach Johan Cruyff says the club need not pursue young Brazilian star Neymar.
"[Barca] doesn't need Neymar," said the former Dutch
star. "Barca has a fantastic squad so why waste any money – although if he plays for the squad and for [Lionel] Messi then he would be a good fit, of course. ... Messi has a different type of
power at the club because he's a true artist with the ball at his feet and you're stupid if you don't respect him."
Cruyff also shared his views on Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho:
"He's a great manager, but he was never a player and that's noticeable -- that's not to say that he's a bad coach. Anyway, he has some great players although he could get a bit more out of some of them."
