Bobby Charlton Knihy

Kniha 50 Let Poháru mistrů evropských zemí a Ligy mistrů známého anglického sportovního novináře Keira Radnedge vypráví příběh nejprestižnější světové fotbalové soutěže, představuje osobnosti, které ji utvářely, a odhaluje skandály i spory, jež jí otřásaly. Byla měřítkem úspěchu pro všechny fotbalové týmy mohly sice vyhrát mnoho jiných soutěží, ale slávu, popularitu a obdiv fanoušku jim, jejich hráčům, trenérům i majitelům přineslo jen vítězství v Poháru mistrů evropských zemí a Lize mistrů. - 300 barevných a černobílých fotografií - Obálky finálových programů - Základní fakta a statistiky Autor neopomíjí jedinou fotbalovou hvězdu, klub či událost: od prvních zápasů Alfreda Di Stéfana v roce 1950 přes letecké neštěstí v Mnichově a tragédii na Heyselově stadionu v Bruselu až po oslnivý návrat Liverpoolu v roce 2005. Poutavě a zasvěceně přibližuje atmosféru finálových zápasů, od počátku, kdy kluby cestovaly na zápasy hromadnou dopravou a televize přenášela nekvalitní obraz, až po současnost, kdy fotbalisté vydělávají až 100 000 liber týdně a létají soukromými tryskáči.

Celebrate 65 years of the greatest football comic ever!

Bobby Charlton is Manchester United through and through. He was a member of the original Busby Babes and has devoted his career to the club, playing in 754 games over 17 years. During that period he won everything the game had to offer, played alongside some of the greats such as Best and Law, suffered devastating defeats and was involved in one of the greatest football tragedies of all time. Here, for the very first time, he tells the story of those United years. With his beloved Reds he tasted FA Cup victory in the emotional final of 1963, won three first division championships and in 1968 he reached the pinnacle of club success, winning the European Cup. Inevitably, such highs are balanced with no less dramatic lows, such as the 1957 European Cup semi-final, the highly charged 1958 FA Cup loss which followed only weeks after the horrors of the Munich Air disaster, and the 1969 European Cup defeat by Milan. He is one of the true gentlemen of football and the legacy that Bobby Charlton gives to United is beyond compare.

Sir Bobby Charlton is widely acknowledged as the greatest player ever to wear an England shirt. He won a record number of caps and scored a record number of goals. Here, in the second volume of his bestselling autobiography, Sir Bobby talks in detail about his phenomenal career with England. During the 22 years he played for his country, he was involved in some of the greatest England games of all time, the 9-3 thrashing of Scotland, the 1962 and 1970 World Cup games against the Brazilians, the classic 1970 World Cup quarter-final against West Germany and, of course, the triumph of the 1966 World Cup. Here, for the very first time, Sir Bobby talks openly about his international career and his views on the game. From breaking into the squad at 21, to the highs of '66 and the lows of '70, his story encompasses drama, passion, goals, controversies, classic matches, world-class players, and moments of soccer genius. A truly inspirational story from a true sports legend.
