A year in the football world from Belo Horizonte to Burnley, featuring great goals, bad punditry, referee's haircuts, unusual simulations, self imploding managers, marginal offsides, glory, despair and an obscure philosophy. Inspired by a childhood love of football annuals, this is an affectionate look at the Brazil World Cup 2014 and the following seasons English Premier League. Who would achieve legendary status in the heat of South America? What surprises would the new season bring? Would referees with spray cans catch on in this country? ..."The kind of book you read in front of an open fire" AY ..."Waited a long time for a funny football book. Still waiting." EB ..."My whole family's choice of toilet reading." Simon
