I, Robot e-bog

**A Daily Mail Book of the Year**What happens on the pitch is only half the story. Being a footballer is not just kicking a ball about with twenty-one other people on a big grass rectangle. Sometimes being a footballer is about accidentally becoming best mates with Mickey Rourke, or understanding why spitting is considered football s most heinous crime.In How to be a Footballer, Peter Crouch took us into a world of bad tattoos and even worse haircuts, a world where you re on the pitch one minute, spending too much money on a personalised number plate the next. In I, Robot, he lifts the lid even further on the beautiful game. We will learn about Gareth Bale s magic beans, the Golden Rhombus of Saturday night entertainment, and why Crouchy s dad walks his dog wearing an England tracksuit from 2005. Whether you re an armchair expert, or out in the stands every Saturday, crazy for five-a-side or haven t put on a pair of boots since school, this is the real inside story of how to be a footballer.
