Good Points: Football from an unusual perspective.

Bad Points: There were none.

General comments: Instead of the usual chronological biography this was like listening to someone reminising about their life and various events in it. It was therefore casual and insightful. If you expect this man, who had characterised his time in football by being the epitome of professionalism, to have a go at the establishment - that has caused him to cut short his time in international football - you will be disappointed. He tells it as he sees it, but accepts that moaning will not change anything. He is a great loss to the world of football, of that there is no doubt. If they do not use his talant and experience in someway in the future it will be a criminal waste, and this feeling was confirmed by what he had to say and the way he said it. Go get the book, it was a great read.
