The Laudrup dribble, a signature feint also known as the "croqueta", was perhaps the best-known part of his game, and involved him quickly moving the ball from one foot to the other away from the defender, a move which was later also popularised by later Barcelona midfielder Andrés Iniesta. Laudrup's ball skills and feints were combined with creativity, which he used to get past defenders in one on one situations. This led to the expression "Made in Laudrup" being coined in the Spanish football media, which was widely used in Spain to describe his trademark assists, in particular his lobbed passes, as well as his unique play. According to a 2018 article by Josh Butler of "The Athletic" and "These Football Times", several of Laudrup's teammates said of his creative style of play: "Just run, he will always find a way of passing you the ball."
