Книга Фила МакНалти и Джима Уайта "Красное на красном. Ливерпуль, Манчестер Юнайтед и самое ожесточенное соперничество в мировом футболе" - нерассказанная история самого спорного матча в мировом футболе • Ливерпуль и Манчестер. Два великолепно независимых, эклектичных, культурно ярких города. Тем не менее, их жители недолюбливают друг друга с невероятной страстью. Это разделение охватывает поколения, независимо от класса, пола и этнической принадлежности. И с годами она растет, во многом благодаря одной вещи: футболу • Темное, злобное отвращение, разделяемое фанатами "Ливерпуля" и "Манчестер Юнайтед", просочилось во все аспекты жизни в этих двух городах. Футбол не является барометром презрения в таких местах, как Глазго, Стамбул или Москва. Но на северо-западе Англии это двигатель вражды

A creator and a goal scorer, he rose through the Tottenham youth academy – playing under Keith Burkinshaw and crossing paths with the likes of club legends Bill Nicholson and Danny Blanchflower – before going on to play in Monaco under the tutelage of Arsene Wenger
