    This isn't an attempted stab at Manure fans or anything of the like..

    I'm currently about 3/4 of the way through SAF's book. Man, I'm finding it so poorly written.

    He'll write one sentence that brings up say Djemba Djemba, then he'll have 2-3 paragraphs on complete waffle that don't relate to anything, then he'll write almost the exact same sentence about Djemba Djemba as if he'd never derailed from that thought, but also as if the second sentence gives some form of insight that he hadn't already brought up.

    It feels like SAF is holding back a lot of the views and thoughts he really wants to say about people and situations, and it just ends up that he basically says nothing at all.

    For every interesting insight I get from reading this book, there's about 2 pages of pure garbage.

    Coming off the back of reading Dennis Bergkamp's and Zlatan's books, which I consider to be two of the better football books I've ever read, this SAF book is an actual chore to get through.
