On Days Like These: The Incredible Autobiography of a Football Legend

Product Information

I particularly enjoyed watching his Leicester City side that won 2 League Cups, his Celtic side that broke Rangers stranglehold on the Scottish league and his exciting Irish side that made the second round of the European Championships against all odds.

And on more recent times, lessons are learned in England – as he led Wycombe from Conference to the League, and Leicester City and Aston Villa to unprecedented highs – before joining forces with Roy Keane and taking the Republic of Ireland to the second round of the Euros for the first time in their history.The only disappointment was that as his career progresses, particularly into management in the premiership, he doesn’t go into more depth when describing many of the characters in the dressing room, the make-up of the club and the characters involved. As a manager, O'Neill's celebrated leadership of Celtic saw them win seven trophies, including three Scottish Premier League titles; and in England he successfully led Leicester City to two League Cups and Aston Villa to an unprecedented three consecutive top six Premier League finishes. Written with his trademark forthright honesty and humour, On Days Like These is a must-read for any fan of the beautiful game. Biography: Martin O'Neill began his career in Northern Ireland, winning the Irish Cup with Lisburn Distillery. I wonder whether it would've been better for the great man to divide this book into two tomes: one dealing with his playing career and a sequel with his managerial one.

He became Republic of Ireland manager in 2013 and beat the reigning world champions Germany in the process of qualifying for the 2016 UEFA European Championship for the third time in the nation's history and they made it to the second round for the first time ever. Not surprisingly for a man of Martin O'Neill's intelligence, this one was written by the man himself.The people of Japan believe that everyone has an ikigai - a reason for being; the thing that gets you out of bed each morning. But is does make you wonder if he could have achieved even more greatness if he had kept his temper in check. After all, Martin is a man who played alongside George Best at international level and most interesting to me, played for Clough and Taylor. In The Coldest Case: A Black Book Audio Drama, homicide detective Billy Harney sends his new partner, Kate, deep undercover in a notorious Chicago drug ring.

The last couple of chapters feel rushed, and this is a book that starts well but fades as it goes on.

Eliminate negativity and change your life with best-selling author, happiness expert and life coach Domonique Bertolucci. On Days Like These is an insightful and captivating autobiography, and a must-read for all fans of the beautiful game. In the absolutely packed Act II, the dark fantasy resumes and the Sandman expands into the French Revolution, ancient Rome, 19th-century San Francisco, eighth-century Baghdad, and beyond. With all that considered, I was looking forward to an in-depth account of his career in sport, however I felt a bit let down by this. He has split his story in half with the first half covering his playing days and the second his managerial experiences.
