Would not recommend, and the kindle version sucks

Would not recommend, and the kindle version sucks
Content: it's a weird mixture of soccer history, biography of some managers, and sloppy (if any) description of tactics. This is a book on the background stories of the tactics, not of the tactics themselves.Format: the kindle version's table of contents is completely messed up. When you are reading page 100, the table of contents thinks you are already on page 200. I can't believe it still has not been fixed four years after publication.
