🇹🇷 Today, Galatasaray will host Liverpool in the Champions League. 📕 “Welcome to Hell” is a search of the real Turkish football, dispelling the distorted image of the sport in this country.
🏴 We failed to mention a very exciting release from last week. 📕 “There Are Places I Remember” by @Scraggy_74 is the story of Liverpool’s 2004/05 season which ended in glory, but didn’t always feel like it would.
🇮🇹 Serie A’s biggest match of the weekend kicks off soon, as Milan host Napoli. 📘 @tomd_underhill’s “Rinascimento” tells the story of Napoli’s victorious 2022/23 season. 📕 @ammandev’s “The Conquerors” explores a fascinating period in Milan’s history.
🇪🇸 Today’s Madrid Derby brought an end to Xabi Alonso’s perfect La Liga start as Real Madrid manager with Atletico winning 5-2. 📘 Ashwin Reuben Ballal’s “Made in Argentina, Mastered in Madrid” tells the story of how Diego Simeone “awakened a sleeping giant” in Atletico Madrid.
🏴 Manchester United and Brentford kick off the PL matchweek tomorrow 📕 Nick Brown’s “Buzzing: The Story of Brentford’s First Premier League Season” is about their 21/22 PL season 📕 Harry Robinson’s “The Men Who Made Manchester United” is their history before Sir Matt Busby
🏆 Today will conclude matchweek 1 of the 2025-26 Europa League campaign. 📘 Pick up Steven Scragg’s “Where the Cool Kids Hung Out” for a history of the UEFA Cup, the trophy that preceded the #UEL.
🌎 Palmeiras and River Plate meet later on in a Copa Libertadores quarter-final clash. 📕 @LucianoWernicke’s “The Dark Side of the Copa Libertadores” tells the story of the sinister and violent goings in South American football.
🇫🇷 Kylian Mbappe’s Real Madrid face Levante today. The Frenchman is among the frontrunners to keep the Ballon d’Or in France next year. 📘 “Sacre Bleu” by @mattspiro is a journey “from Zidane to Mbappe” and serves as a great read on the 2018 World Cup winning side.
🏆 The winner of the 2025 Ballon d’Or will be announced shortly. 📙 “Messi vs Ronaldo” by Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg explores an era in which the pair won 13 of 15 Ballon d’Or’s between 2008 and 2023.
🇩🇪 Union Berlin picked up a big Bundesliga result, knocking down Frankfurt 4-3 away from home earlier. 📕 Kit Holden’s “Scheisse!” tells the story of the club’s rise in recent years.
🔴 Liverpool are currently 2-0 up at halftime in the first edition of the Merseyside Derby this season. 📘 Read @PeterKennyJones’ “Crossing the Park” to learn about all players who have played for both sides of Merseyside.
🇩🇪 St. Pauli and Stuttgart will kick off in under an hour, with the former currently in fourth place in the Bundesliga. 📕 Carles Viñas and Natxo Parra wrote about St. Pauli’s fascinating culture in “Another Football is Possible.”
🇧🇪 Kevin de Bruyne is set to start for Napoli against his former club Manchester City in today’s UCL clash. 📘 Lee Scott’s “Mastering the Premier League” is a tactcial analysis of Pep Guardiola’s early Manchester City years, with de Bruyne among the most important pieces.
⚔️ Day 2 of the the UCL is headlined by Bayern Munich vs Atletico Madrid. 📕 Uli Hesse’s “Bayern: Creating A Global Superclub” is the story of Bayern’s rise. 📕 Ashwin Ballal’s “Made in Argentina, Mastered in Madrid” focuses on Atletico Madrid since Diego Simeone’s appointment.
🏆 With the Champions League returning today, we wanted to highlight a book on the topic. 📙 Steven Scragg’s “The Undisputed Champions of Europe” tells the history of the European Cup, the trophy that preceded the #UCL.
📅 #OnThisDay in 2001, Manchester United fell 4-3 to Newcastle in a memorable match ending with a Wes Brown own goal, and Roy Keane red card. 📕 @JSilk’s “Even the Defeats” is the story of how Sir Alex Ferguson used defeats, to inspire United triumphs.
🇫🇷 Paris FC and PSG both picked up three points in Ligue 1 today. However, there is another Parisian club fighting to join them in France’s top flight. 📗 “Red Star Paris, More Than Just A Football Club” by Simon Binns releasing in October is the story of that fascinating club.
📅 We are just two days away from an exciting @PitchPublishing release. 📘 @GarethDace’s “Hot Shot Tottenham” is the story of Spurs in the 80s.
⚔️ Everton and Villa face off in the PL’s return tomorrow. 📘 Lou Reed Foster’s “Fear and Loathing at Goodison Park” is about David Moyes’ first spell at Everton 📘 “Only the Real Thing” by @Ivan_McDouall promises to be an intriguing read on Aston Villa in the early to mid 90s
📅 #OnThisDay in 1945, Franz Beckenbauer was born. 📕 Uli Hesse’s 2023 release of “The Three Lives of the Kaiser” tells us the story of a man who was much more than just a fantastic footballer.
