Rooney won five Premier League titles, three League Cups, an FA Cup, a UEFA Champions League, a UEFA Europa League and a FIFA Club World Cup™.

From Andrew Caldecott, the author of the ROTHERWEIRD trilogy, comes a dark, enigmatic, compelling new adventure: think Alice in Wonderland meets Station Eleven, played out in places where paintings come to life. Warped Hells Angels' 'justice' revealed: California biker was held down and forcibly TATTOOED for sleeping.His novels remind me very much of Neal Stephenson and this book put me in mind of Josiah Bancroft's Selin Ascends. A key cog in some of Brazil and Europe’s greatest sides, Cafu’s attacking play down the right of the defence made him a legend of the game and inspired all his sides to triumph. Son of two retired Met police officers who avoided jail despite killing two pedestrians while drug-driving. A traditional, yet complete forward at the height of his game, van Nistelrooy was one of the most consistent strikers of his generation. The aggressive, passionate midfielder was famous for his hard tackles, near-unlimited energy, and ability to read the game from midfield and make quick reactions.

He has been completely alone in all that time, with only the AIPT, an automated physical trainer to keep him fit, and there has not been a single visitor at the museum. I always found Alice through the Looking Glass a bizarre and complex idea, no matter how many times it is adapted. I consider myself reasonably well read and clever enough to cope with most books, but occasionally a science fiction book comes along that I just cannot get my head around. His prodigious talent led him to one of the most storied teams in English football, scoring a hat-trick on his debut in the UEFA Champions League.

This is bleak version of the future in which most people are now dead and those that live must survive under the whim of a few rich families.

The emotional cry of murdered Yousef Makki's sister: I kept my promise mum… It took four years but now.

They both have plans for mankind's future, but their visions are very different - and an uneasy collaboration between them is about to end, with desperate consequences. Gerrard’s list of accomplishments and highlights is rather long, but he is perhaps best remembered for his performance in the 2005 Champions League final, where he masterminded his team’s historic comeback after going down 3-0 to AC Milan.One of Italian football’s greatest full backs, Gianluca Zambrotta formed a key part of a formidable Italy defence that conceded just two goals on their way to winning the 2006 FIFA World Cup™ trophy. Garrincha joined Botafogo in 1953 and quickly made a name for himself, scoring a hat-trick on his debut against Bonsucesso. After five seasons in Mexico, Sanchez spent four years at Atlético Madrid before making the move across the city to rivals Real. Blessed with incredible speed and trickery, John Barnes played a key role for a Watford team that finished second in the league and FA Cup runners-up before transferring to Liverpool.

Devastating finishing, coupled with pace, trickery, and crafty tactical nous, Eto’o preceded his own reputation. Estimated to have kept 270 clean sheets and saved over 150 penalties, Yashin remains the only keeper to ever win the Ballon d'Or.

In addition to world-class defending, Blanc’s leadership skills made him highly respected at the highest levels of football. The biggest lesson, I really now believe today in 2023 looking back, is not only must you be tenacious, not only must you be grateful, but you also have to be flexible. His partnership with fellow ICON Rivaldo on the club stage was perhaps the most feared attacking duo in world football at the time, with the pair complementing each other’s styles perfectly. The Italian’s tenacity and raw defensive talent allowed him to play at the highest level for two decades, earning multiple scudettos, UEFA Champions League titles, and even a World Cup™ winner’s medal with Italy in 1982.
