Description

For eight years George Graham had control of Arsenal during which he won more trophies than any other manager in the history of the club. In Fenruary 1995, Graham was sacked afetr an FA investigation found his part in an alleged bung scandal to warrane firm action from his club. Mid-season, and yet to play crucial games in the European Cup-Winners, the team Graham built was left to carry on without him. This book has been updated to include the whole of the 1994-1995 season and looks into what happened up to and including Graham's dismissal. It delves deep into the psyche and working practices of George Graham to discover why he has been so successful and yet so derided. Players such as Nick Hornby, Brian Glanville, Henry Winter and Tom Watt express their personal view of Graham - the man and the myth. This is an insight into the modern game, and Graham in particular.
