Does this update contain all the updated chapters since 2001? I remember buying the original hardback in Borders, joking to my girlfriend that an updated paperback would probably be out soon, the guy at the counter said "Yeah, it'll be out in a couple of months" But I didn't wanna wait.

it's rubbish

the original was no "examiniation of the professor" it was just a succession of press conferences which was more about the author increasing his ego than talking to AW

He never had a one to one with AW. and won't have had for the new one. Doesn't even go to press conferences now I think.

It was very very poor. How can you examine AW and give jsut a chapter to pre-Arsenal days and not mention Boro Primorac, the man who might understand's AW's genius.

I don't think AW will write book until he retires. If then. But it will be superb if he does do it. The man is immense

Is the whole thing written in short paragraphs with off the cuff "insider information" which is later contradicted. thats how Miles Palmer usually writes.

 

[Beany]

He probably dedicated 36 chapters to his daughter, her opposition to the Iraq war, and how badly they treat him every time he goes on Radio 5 Live.

He does seem to have some insight; I remember a particulaly funny article about a lift he cadged a lift off Vieira in the early days and how all Vieira talked about was how lazy Alelka was in training.

He's still a knob, though.

Dont buy that book ! waste of money

Ill tell if its a waste when ive read it!
Surely it will give some insight into Le Boss!

You can just order it off Amazon.

It would be expensive, especially the delivery fee.

 

[Henry IV]

Myles Palmer has got a degree so he must know what he's talking about. :roll:

If you are a Myles-sceptic you should by "Arsenal, Arsène Wenger and the Quest for Success." The updated edition is coming out on 26th August.

If you want the same level of insight, read Arsenal89's outrageous claims on Mania followed by the Junior Gunners section of the program

Just get one of those microphone things that when you speak it automatically types the word in a document. That way you could just read the full book out loud
