Gerrard: My Autobiography August 15, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
As far as autobiographies of young people go this one is not too bad.
One thing that does spoil it is the bad language, it was not neccessary in such volume.
It was a typical autobiography of a footballer If only this, I did that, but it was a good read.
A cracking read. August 1, 2008 While most autobiographies are dull and faceless you can't accuse this one of anything. It's such an engaging and entertaining book that you'll be through it in no time and will want to read it again. Being a Liverpool fan, and of course a fan of Stevie G, I was hopng this would be a good one. You never hear anything about him in the press apart from his footballing and he keeps himself to himself but here he opens up and what you get feels genuine and from the heart.
While there is a bit of 'date and event' feel now and again, this is almost all how Gerrard sees things and that can only be a good thing in a biog. This is as close to warts n' all that I've come across in a book for a long time and you get the good times, the bad times and the times that he or his team struggled but came through, and his thoughts and feeling on everything he mentions. There's also a fair bit about his family, but it's not invasive and so you don't feel uncomfortable at any time. It really is that good a book and as a result it's highly recommended. Be warned: there is a fair bit of swearing but take it with a pinch of salt and you'll enjoy it.
Inspirational June 13, 2008 I bought this for my liverpool/footy mad son, he loved it so he lent it to every other liverpool fan he knows, even I ended up reading it. It is a really good, interesting read. It show's how his commitment from a youngster has influenced his life. It's written like Steven speaks so in my head he could have been narrating the book.
from a man united fan April 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
i finished reading this book and was recommending it to anyone i knew that read books . i am a united fan anything good i have to say and write about liverpool football club would fit on the back of a stamp. i grew up from the mid 70s thru the 80s supporting man utd while my whole family cheered on the success of liverpool and delivered me with loads of stick so i cant stand the club. BUT
i bought this book to read the life and times of one of the best central midfielders in the world. I admired steven gerrard as a great player and of his decision to stay at liverpool (at last someone who plays for the shirt, passion and pride for his team and not about the money/shops)
steven gerrard now has my respect as a person as well as a professional footballer he dosent hold back in this book he says what he feels about players,press,refs and managers, He even gives some liverpool fc staff and players a not very good mention. this is a book that gives you the lot he even tells you his wages and the trouble he had to get them..... ........................................................................ STILL,I WISH HE HAD SIGNED FOR UNITED
if you like football,liverpool,stevie g or just a good autobiography this is the book to buy............
