Why have Zidane and Modric when you can have off-brand Zidan and Modic for half the price

The clubs are some of the richest in the world. They have plenty of analysts monitoring when players are playing so many minutes that they’re likely to get hurt. Rotate the squad more often and drop some points.

I’m not usually a fan of these types of books but I get gifted a lot of them because I’m a reader who loves football. Invariably I end up reading them.

Best one for me is “Back from the Brink”, by Paul McGrath. Genuinely very, very good. The man’s life story is nuts and it’s amazing he’s still alive. What a player as well.

They have zero and that’s the correct amount because they’ve never qualified for the group stage. If they ever win it then I’m pretty sure the whole sport and world will probably be in a pretty bad state.
