The England team that touched down in Russia for the 2018 World Cup was a new-look outfit: there were no real stars, no overblown egos and no dickheads. Still reeling from the wincing exit to Iceland in the 2016 Euros, expectations were at an all-time low. Qualification had been smooth if not spectacular, and pundits and fans alike were lukewarm about the team’s chances. Just avoiding embarrassment would have counted as some kind of success. How wrong we were.

L'infanzia in via Vetulonia, i primi calci al pallone, la timidezza e la paura del buio, la vita di quartiere in una Roma che forse non esiste più. Gli amici che resteranno gli stessi per tutta la vita. Gli allenamenti a cui la mamma lo accompagnava in 126, asciugandogli i capelli con i bocchettoni in inverno. L'esordio in Serie A a 16 anni in un pomeriggio di marzo del 1993 a Brescia, con i pantaloni della tuta che al momento di entrare in campo si impigliano nei tacchetti; il primo derby, il primo gol, il rischio di essere ceduto alla Sampdoria prima ancora che la sua favola in giallorosso possa cominciare.

Receiving letters by post or via e-mail has always been important to me. Even now I feel slightly disappointed if the postman passes the door without anything for me, even though I know the chances are it will be a bill, a parking fine, a bank statement or a catalogue offering me clothing or garden furniture. The same applies when my inbox is empty save for someone offering a deal on a used car or urging me to change my energy provider.

Kein deutscher Fußballverein ist erfolgreicher, keiner hat mehr Fans, keiner wird vom Rest Fußballdeutschlands leidenschaftlicher gehasst: Der FC Bayern München spielt in einer Liga für sich. Moderator und Autor Markus Kavka ist seit seiner Kindheit mit Leib und Seele Fan des Vereins. In diesem Hörbuch erzählt er, wie diese Liebe entstand, welche Höhen und Tiefen er erlebte, von dramatischen Spielen im Stadion und davon, wie er seinen Club gegen all diejenigen verteidigt, die ihn nicht ausstehen können.

The Fearless Footballer is not just another "how to" book on how to become a successful footballer. It is not about scoring more goals or assists to your resume - yet these secrets will help you to get exponentially more goals & assists than you've ever experienced before. It is not about showing your full potential in game time - yet these secrets will automatically make you bring the same type of performance from practice to game time more than any gym training ever could.

This book tells the story of women's football in England since its 19th-century inception through pen portraits of its trailblazers. The game might have once been banned because of its popularity – find out about the subversive women who kept organising their teams and matches despite the prohibition, who broke barriers and set records – the legends of the game who built the foundations of the stage upon which today's stars flourish.

At last, the most talked about footballer of his generation does his own talking. It's heartfelt, it's raw, it's one hell of a story. Every football fan has an opinion on Rio Ferdinand. He is one of the most gifted footballers the UK has ever produced, twice breaking the British transfer record, but he courts controversy in equal measure. Most famously, he was dropped by England for missing a drugs test, and his subsequent eight-month ban made front-page news.

Three lads who used to play football together, Sam Aiston, Gav Cowan and Dave Edwards, share some stories, opinions and chat about Shrewsbury Town, the Premier League and football in general. All three have succeeded after football in business, teaching, media, and many other fields.

Whether known as football or, as in the US, soccer; the ‘beautiful game’ is the most popular sport in the world. The best players earn millions of dollars per year, and the greatest clubs are icons in their regions. Children love putting down a couple of jerseys and having a kick around. Globally, it is the team sport that has the greatest public participation and, at the highest level - such as the World Cup, top leagues and cup finals - matches are watched live by tens of thousands of cheering fans.

When James Montague first began covering football in the Middle East two decades ago, people asked him what future there could possibly be for the beautiful game in one of the most volatile regions in the world. In the years that followed, it would become one of the biggest stories in global sport, from the from revolutionary ultras of the Arab Spring and the takeover of some of the world's biggest clubs by the Emirati super rich, to Qatar's controversial journey towards hosting the 2022 World Cup finals.
