I think you'd really like it. It's a book of poetic musings about the game... Here's a passage: "Years have gone by and I've finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good soccer. I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: 'A pretty move, for the love of God.' And when good soccer happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don't give a damn which team or country performs it." I’ve been reading a book called “Soccer in Sun and Shadow”.
