The classic history of soccer tactics - masterful and deliciously nerdy (Time Out)In this modern classic, soccer journalist Jonathan Wilson pulls apart the finer details of the worlds game, tracing the global history of tactics from modern pioneers right back to the beginning, when chaos reigned. Along the way, he examines the lives of great players and thinkers who shaped the sport and probes why the English, in particular, have proved themselves unwilling to grapple with the abstract.Masterfully crafted and delightfully readable, Inverting The Pyramid cleverly analyzes the evolution of modern international football, charts how Spanish, German, and Portuguese tacticians have influenced the game, and ponders the effects of footballs increased globalization and commercialization.
