About This Item
Nation Books, 2011. Paperback. Very Good. A copy that has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Simon Kuper's New York Times bestseller Soccernomics pioneered a new way of looking at soccer through meticulous empirical analysis and incisiveÂ?and wittyÂ? commentary. Kuper now leaves the numbers and data behind to explore the heart and soul of the world's most popular sport in the new, extraordi narily revealing Soccer Men. Soccer Men goes behind the scenes with soccer's greatest players and coache s. Inquiring into the genius and hubris of the modern game, Kuper details t he lives of giants such as Arsène Wenger, Jose Mourinho, Jorge Valdano, Lio nel Messi, Kakà, and Didier Drogba, describing their upbringings, the socce r cultures they grew up in, the way they play, and the baggage they bring t o their relationships at work. From one of the great sportswriters of our time, Soccer Men is a penetrating and surprising anatomy of the figures that define modern soccer.
