Flat Back Four: The Tactical Game

Rating:
Summary: Very Insightful
Review: Any fan of British soccer will enjoy this book, especially those who are interested in tactics. The diagrams are very well designed. Elegant would be the word to describe them. Andy Gray does a great job of describing the roles of various positions, the strengths and weaknesses of systems, and the players, managers, and teams that made each one successful or unsuccessful in some instances.

I read the book with great alacrity and finished the book in one sitting. My only qualification would be that it did not describe build-up play as much as I would have liked. Still yet, it is the best book on soccer that I have ever read.
