Description

Ten years in the making, this A-to-Z of incredible facts and stories about what Pelé once memorably dubbed "my bloody job," includes definitive explanations of everyday phrases such as "the magic of the cup" and "low center of gravity;" a complete guide to becoming a terrace wit; and an in-depth account of how Roy Keane's pajamas got him a smack on the nose. It also addresses hitherto ignored aspects of the beautiful game, including its longstanding relationship with country and western music. - from Amzon
