Why England lose (2010, HarperSport) 4 stars

Review of 'Why England lose' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

More a collection of chapter-sized mini-books, this is well worth a read for the insights into the footballing world. 'Why England Lose' isn't answered so much as turned on it's head - the seem to do slightly better than they should due to population size and economic development. The chapter on the transfer market was probably the most interesting, especially the section on how managers are (not) chosen.
Overall, a good book deserving of a place on the bookshelf.
