It's not all Posh 'n' Becks in professional football as this book shows only too well. It charts a year in the life of a Division 1 striker hit by injury, indecision and anxiety as he fights to keep his place in the squad. A fascinating and intelligent analysis of the modern game from a player who spent fourteen years looking out into the 'promised land' of the Premiership but never quite making it himself.
