I, Robot: How to Be a Footballer 2
English
By (author): Peter Crouch
**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 footballs 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 youre 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 Bales magic beans, the Golden Rhombus of Saturday night entertainment, and why Crouchys dad walks his dog wearing an England tracksuit from 2005.
Whether youre an armchair expert, or out in the stands every Saturday, crazy for five-a-side or havent put on a pair of boots since school, this is the real inside story of how to be a footballer.
