In The Great and the Good, Ireland's leading football pundit and
legend of the game John Giles looks back on more than fifty years
of football, at developments in the game from the post-War period
to the present day, the great players who drove it forward, the
visionary managers and their teams, and the age-old question of
what makes a player good and what makes one great. From his
earliest days, John Giles can recall pondering the subject. 'You'd
hear about certain 'great' players, such as Stanley Matthews, but
no one would ever explain why they were great. And it's a thing
that has always frustrated me: trying to define what makes a player
great, and what separates the great from the good.' Now the man
himself brings us the answers and celebrates the great ones, from
Stanley Matthews, Tom Finney, Dave Mackay, John Charles, Johnny
Haynes and Jimmy Greaves to Pele, Franz Beckenbauer, John
Robertson, Diego Maradona, Marco van Basten, Lionel Messi, Paul
Scholes and many more. It will include a section on Irish players
including detailed analysis of such greats as Roy Keane, Liam Brady
and Paul McGrath. And, finally, Giles names the player he considers
the greatest of them all.
