Herbert Chapman is synonymous with the game of football
and is the man who fundamentally changed the face of the sport.
Herbert Chapman was the greatest pioneer
in the history of British football management
and made Arsenal the best side in the country in the early 1930’s,
winning both the F.A. Cup and Division One Title
and defined the role of the modern team Manager.
‘Herbert Chapman stands out as the pioneer who shook British football
out of an age-old slough and was a tireless innovator decades ahead of his time
- a champion of such ground-breaking concepts as floodlights, numbered shirts,
clocks inside grounds, white footballs, team meetings, physiotherapy
and synthetic pitches, to name just a few.
Most progressive of all, at a time when sides were selected
by self-appointed boardroom cabals,
Chapman insisted on total control of team affairs.’
Alex Murphy - The Times 10th January 2004
This is a book that no footballer and no spectator
can afford to be without.
