Description
This week I'm joined by Michael Cox to discuss his new book, Zonal Marking, which tracks the development of European football over the last 30 years. From the Dutch Total Football to Spanish Tiki-Taka and everything inbetween. We chat about Dennis Bergkamp, the role of the number 10, Arsene Wenger's tactical approach, as well as some Pep, Klopp, Unai Emery, and more. There's also a chance to win a copy of the book, and some of the usual waffle in there too. Follow Michael @Zonal_Marking and if you want to pick up a copy of the book head down to your local independent bookstore and buy it there to support decent business owners who don't treat people like filth and also pay their taxes, but if you have to you can get it from Amazon too.
