Sven-Goran Eriksson

Fine condition. Grafton, 2002. First Grafton edition-first printing(1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2). Pictorial hardback with Dj(a couple of nicks, scratches and crease on the Dj cover), both in fine condition. Illustrated with colour, b/w photos. Nice and clean pages as new with a small colour mark and slightly yellow on the outer edges, a couple of small creases and nick on the edges of the pages. 376pp including index. Price un-clipped. Product Description: The in-depth biography of Sven Goran Eriksson - the first foreign manager of the England football team - which chronicles his time in the hot seat, from his baptism of fire on succeeding the incumbent Kevin Keegan through to the 2002 World Cup Finals in Japan and South Korea. The in Japan and South Korea. For the average English football fan, it is still largely a case of 'Sven who?' when it comes to the man behind the permafrost smile. Reserved - some would say introvert - by nature, he has so far dismissed as intrusive all questions about anything other than the England team. As a consequence, there is a fascinating story to be told about the moderate full-back who failed in his own country, retired from playing at 27, then went on to become one of the best coaches in the world. The son of a truck driver from a small provincial town in Sweden, Eriksson left school early and worked in a social security office. He went to college to study PE and played football as an amateur before being persuaded by an older teammate Tord Grip (now his assistant with England) that his career lay elsewhere in the game. Modest success at Roma and Fiorentina was followed by a renewal of Sampdoria's fortunes. It wasn't long before Lazio came knocking - but not before an acrimonious fallout with Blackburn when his surprise about-turn left the Lancashire club without a new manager. Phenomenal success in Rome however, where he led Lazio to the scudetto, eventually paved the way to the England manager's job. Until now. Joe Lovejoy's book captures the essence of the man and goes some way to explaining his influence behind the metamorphosis of Team England - from his first day in the hot seat to the thrills and spills of the Japan and Korea in 2002. It's a journey not to be missed. Fine/Fine. ISBN: 9780007140688

Illustrated with colour photos. The book is new. 241pp. T Book Description: In June 1986 Diego Maradona, considered by many to be the greatest footballer of all time, proudly hoisted the '86 Mexico World Championship Cup in his hands. Now over thirty years on from that magical game, and after a life in sports marked by controversy, Maradona tells, for the first time, the untold stories behind that one-of-a-kind World Cup. Mexico '86 was the pinnacle of Maradona's career, and in this book he reveals all about every game, what happened afterwards in the locker room, the months leading up to the World Cup, when the team had to go to Mexico City a month early to avoid the overthrowing of the technical director by the Argentine president, Alfonsin, the mystery behind 'El Gran Capitán' Passarella ('78 World Cup Champion), the strategies and tactics that revolutionised the game, training in a country that was recovering from an earthquake, the public's hostility, the jerseys they went out to buy in Mexico City, the meeting in Colombia where the team really came together, his relationship to drugs: the clean World Cup, and the best goal in football history. Mexico '86 is Maradona's World Cup and Maradona is who he is because of that World Cup. Explosive, gritty and unapologetic, Touched by God tells the inside story of one of the greatest football victories of all time. New. ISBN: 9781472125057
