Inverting The Pyramid - The History Of Football Tactics

by Jonathan Wilson
Inverting The Pyramid - The History Of Football Tactics - Thryft
Inverting The Pyramid - The History Of Football Tactics - Thryft

Revolutionary guide to football tactics.

"Inverting The Pyramid" explores the evolution of football tactics from the very beginning. It delves into the lives of great players and thinkers who shaped the game, making it a great read for football fans and players alike. The most unique aspect of the book is how it traces the world history of tactics from modern pioneers right back to the beginning where chaos reigned.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Soccer fans love to argue about the tactics a manager puts into play, and this fascinating study traces the world history of tactics, from modern pioneers right back to the beginning, where chaos reigned. Along the way, author Jonathan Wilson, an erudite and detailed writer who never loses a sense of the grand narrative sweep, takes a look at the lives of the great players and thinkers who shaped the game, and discovers why the English in particular have proved themselves so “unwilling to grapple with the abstract.” This is a modern classic of soccer writing that followers of the game will dip into again and again.
