Book excerpt: Who is the greatest ever footballer? Pele? Maradona? Cruyff? Who is the greatest ever British footballer? Charlton? Best? Dalglish? Who is the country's greatest defender, midfielder, goalkeeper? What are the greatest teams fielded by every club in the English and Scottish leagues? And what is the greatest international team of all time? How do you decide? Well, the facts don't lie. Based on a unique and comprehensive network of national and international football databases, compiled by football statisticians across the globe, each player is awarded points (for games played for both club and country) according to a series of criteria, such as win, lose, draw, whether they scored, goals conceded, captaincy, etc. Points accumulated for each game are also weighted in line with the competition in which the game featured and the quality of the opponents played. Each player's points are then fed through to the Greatest Ever compilers who update their lists on a weekly basis. The end result is the only objective, comprehensive and incontrovertible record of who are the greatest talents ever to have graced the beautiful game.

Book excerpt: Pelé—legendary footballer and humanitarian—explores the sport’s recent history and shares his most inspiring experiences, heartwarming stories, and hard-won wisdom. “I know in my heart that soccer was good to me, and great to the world....I saw, time and again, how the sport improved countless millions of lives, both on and off the field. For me, at least, that’s why soccer matters.” The world’s most popular sport goes by many names—soccer, football, the beautiful game—but fans have always agreed on one thing: The greatest player of all time was Pelé. Before Messi, before Ronaldo, before Beckham, Pelé had a stunning twenty-year career, where he was heralded as an international treasure. His accomplishments on the field proved to be pure magic: an unprecedented three World Cup championships and the all-time scoring record, with 1,283 goals. Since retiring, he has traveled the world as soccer’s global ambassador, relentlessly promoting the positive ways soccer can transform young men and women, struggling communities, even entire nations. This is Pelé’s legacy, his way of passing on everything he’s learned and inspiring a new generation. In Why Soccer Matters, Pelé details his ambitious goals for the future of the sport and, by extension, the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for The Telegraph Sports Book Awards 2019 Long before perma-tanned football agents and TV mega-rights ushered in the age of the multimillionaire player, footballers' wages were capped – even the game's biggest names earned barely more than a plumber or electrician. Footballing legends such as Tom Finney and Stanley Matthews shared a bond of borderline penury with the huge crowds they entertained on Saturday afternoons, on pitches that were a world away from the pristine lawns of the game's modern era. Instead of the gleaming sports cars driven by today's top players, the stars of yesteryear travelled to matches on public transport and returned to homes every bit as modest as those of their supporters. Players and fans would even sometimes be next-door neighbours in a street of working-class terraced houses. Based on the first-hand accounts of players from a fast disappearing generation, When Footballers Were Skint delves into the game's rich heritage and relates the fascinating story of a truly great sporting era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it take to be the best? This book has selected the 25 greatest footballers of all time. It will take you on a step-by-step guide through their illustrious careers, starting with their childhood, and then taking you through their playing days, making sure to highlight all of the countless records that they set along the way. Being called one of the GOAT's (Greatest of All Time) is a very big claim to make and there are many factors that must be ticked for a player to even be considered in this bracket. It is not just about the number of goals scored over their careers, or the number of trophies won, but it is also about their ability to be a great leader in the team, to step up in the big games, and to leave a legacy upon the great sport of football. All of these factors have been carefully analysed to select 25 players who have shone above the rest, ranging from players of the 1950's, to players who are still playing today. Learning about the best of the best is crucial to becoming a better footballer yourself. Who knows, maybe in the future you will be replacing one of these footballers as a legend yourself. Suitable for kids aged 7+

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Football's Fifty Most Influential Players tells the story of football through its best and most influential players, from the 19th century to the modern day. Most of the 50 are household names--Pele, Charlton, Maradona, Jimmy Hill, Matthews, Best, Zidane, and Messi--and those who aren't certainly deserve to be. You'll read about football's first black superstar Jose Andrade, a 1930 World Cup winner with Uruguay who died in poverty. There's Lily Parr, a Woodbine-smoking behemoth of the women's game who is more famous now than when she died. Then there's Robbie Rogers, the second male footballer in Britain to come out as gay. Though Rogers wasn't a great player, his story will restore some faith after Justin Fashanu's appalling experiences as a gay footballer in the 1980s. Similarly, Jean-Marc Bosman made an indelible mark, not on the pitch but through the courts, changing the way footballers are treated forever. It's not about the stats, tactics, or managers--this is the players' story, from war heroes and match-fixers to superstars and an African president.

Download or read book 71/72 written by Daniel Abrahams and published by eBook Partnership. This book was released on 2021-10-18 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a season when the world's greatest footballers were all on show at British grounds. Best, Keegan, Charlton and Moore were joined by Pele, Cruyff, Beckenbauer and Eusebio, while in the dugouts Clough, Shankly, Revie and Allison duked it out in the closest ever championship title race. That season was 1971/72. As Enoch Powell's rhetoric roared and American Pie topped the pop charts, Britain's footballing culture was simpler purer than the one we know today, with the game played for the public, not for TV companies. It was a time when players shared pints with fans, Topps football cards were schoolyard currency, Roy Race ruled the comic world and videprinters saw footy devotees hold their collective breath every weekend. As well as covering the superstars, 71/72 is a treasure trove of tales of lesserknown names who added to that extraordinary season. Read about the Aldo Poy goal that is still celebrated today, Toni Fritsch revolutionising the NFL, cricketing footballers and the OAP ball boy who rowed the River Severn.
