Johan Cruyff was facing some of the best european soccer teams of all the time. On the other hand, if you exclude the WC, Pele was dealing mainly with brazilian soccer teams. Brazilian teams were and they still are hard, but their level is much lower than the one of europeans.
Cruyff played in '70s were the defense was much more complicated than in '50s and '60s when Pele was the big star.
