Gripping autobiography of former Manchester United midfielder Luke Chadwick, one of football's nice guys, who fought a hidden battle with depression and anxiety due to appalling abuse from the media and fans.
Foreword by football legend Dion Dublin, Luke's hero who became his team-mate.
As a member of the Manchester United first team, Luke found himself lining up alongside Ryan Giggs, David Beckham and Roy Keane as United marched to their third successive Premier League title. But instead of enjoying what should have been the happiest of times, he shut himself away from the outside world.
Read and you will discover:
  • A first-hand insight into Sir Alex Ferguson's unique method of signing promising youngsters and the way he dealt with the more established stars
  • Luke's time as an England under-21 international
  • Having played more than 500 games across seven different divisions during his 15-year playing career, Luke's tale covers all aspects of life as a professional footballer. Brutally honest and often hilarious, his story isn't one of gloom – it's a tale of resilience and inspiration.
