Synopsis
Master tacticians, insane rulers, and fortunate generals… This fascinating examination reveals the attitudes and, to be completely honest, somewhat astonishing methods of the coaches who work to award football’s greatest honour.
A WORLD CUP WINNING STRATEGY?
The most renowned tournament in the world can make or ruin a national coach, turning him into a godlike genius or the target of a furious nation. What are the secrets of the 20 managers who have led their teams to World Cup success? This book looks for the secrets to the most elite club in international football, from radical strategies to crazy plans.
What can the coach actually do to affect their team’s performance, despite their sly plotting on the bench or frenetic gesturing from the sidelines? Learn about the innovative tactics, winning ideas, odd superstitions, mind-blowing team-building techniques, and psychological master courses that managers have used in their pursuit of the coveted trophy.
This book thoroughly details the lengths the man in the dugout will go to to win the biggest prize. It charts the successes, failures, dramas, and controversies of 90 years of World Cup action through the insights of journalists, players, and managers with first-hand experience of World Cup competition.
Leading World Cup figures including Luiz Felipe Scolari, Geoff Hurst, Carlos Alberto Parreira, Pierre Littbarski, Roberto Martinez, Mick McCarthy, Tomas Brolin, Jamie Carragher, Alexi Lalas, Patrick Barclay, Raphael Honigstein, and Graham Hunter have all contributed to the book.

Oh, my. Football is huge in mi country and people get truly passionate about it. I’ve never truly got it. This book might be interesting from a strategic and psychological point of view but could be hard to grasp for people like me.
