Description

Simon Kuper s New York Times bestseller Soccernomics pioneered a new way of looking at soccer through meticulous empirical analysis and incisive and witty 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, extraordinarily revealing Soccer Men.

Soccer Men goes behind the scenes with soccer s greatest players and coaches. Inquiring into the genius and hubris of the modern game, Kuper details the lives of giants such as Ars ne Wenger, Jose Mourinho, Jorge Valdano, Lionel Messi, Kak , and Didier Drogba, describing their upbringings, the soccer cultures they grew up in, the way they play, and the baggage they bring to 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.
