Crap
Poorly written, no real insight into the person. Its just page after page of vague match summaries and meaningless things. And some of the language is badly written as this was translated from a danish version of the book. Not worth a read.

Stick to your day job, honey
Even with a writer to aid him, it's clear that Schmeichel is more skilled withhis hands and feet than with words.

You have to be a Schmeichel fan - as I am - to want to read this book from cover to cover.. Greatliterature it ain't.

I was disappointed that it did not give me moreinsights about his relationship with his mates in Man U, and hisrelationship with Ferguson - whose own books are eminently more interestingand insightful than this one. It was a little too much a Me Me Mebook.

Perhaps the problem I had was that I read this book right afterreading a transcript of interviews with Johan Cruyff, who is as skilledspeaking as he was toying with a football.

Still,if one is interestedin goalkeeping and goalkeepers, this would be a decent read even for a nonSchmeichel fan.
