Paul Gascoigne Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)
Deze auteur werd bekend om zijn dynamische stijl, zowel op als buiten het veld. Zijn carrière zat vol gedenkwaardige momenten, waaronder deelname aan het WK en emotionele gebeurtenissen die in de harten van fans werden gegrift. Na zijn pensionering als profvoetballer kampte hij met persoonlijke problemen, maar deze overschaduwden zijn nalatenschap in de harten van sportliefhebbers niet. Zijn verhaal is een bewijs van de hoogte- en dieptepunten van het menselijk leven, evenals van veerkracht en de drang om obstakels te overwinnen.
Almost as soon as Gazza burst on to the scene at Newcastle United, the young Geordie was the centre of attention: Vinnie Jones's notorious ball-handling showed the lengths people would go to try to stop him. Then, with England on the verge of possibly reaching the World Cup final in 1990, came Gazza's tears - the moment that brought a whole new audience to the sport and helped set the football boom of the 1990s on its way. But then came a career-threatening injury, mental health problems, self-confessed alcoholism and family disputes, as life in the full glare of the media spotlight became too much. Now, at the end of his top-flight playing career, Gazza is ready to confront his demons. The result is quite simply the most remarkable footballing story you'll ever read: what it's like being Paul Gascoigne, in his own words.
