Sober Zusammenfassung

Sober: Football. My Story. My Life. Tony Adams

THE BRILLIANT SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER.
'A searingly honest account of the Arsenal legend's quest to recover from alcoholism. Unflinchingly brave.' Sunday Mirror

Being Addicted was only half the story, now comes the stunning new autobiography from Tony Adams, now appearing on Strictly Come Dancing.


Tony Adams was a charismatic figure on the football field, a true leader for Arsenal and England. He won league titles in three separate decades, and after the Gunners moved to their new stadium at the Emirates, it was fitting that a statue of him was erected outside to celebrate his extraordinary career. But, for much of that time, he was also drinking heavily and eventually admitted in his book Addicted that he was an alcoholic.

Now, in that book's stunning successor Sober, Adams reveals what happened next. He discusses the impact that Arsene Wenger had when he arrived at Arsenal in 1996, and how the manager's new methods helped extend his career and brought new success to the club. Always a great thinker on the game, Adams moved into coaching and management on retirement, playing a key role in Portsmouth's famous FA Cup triumph in 2008, and taking on new challenges in the Netherlands, Azerbaijan, China and now Spain to broaden his perspective.

He movingly explains the struggles he's faced to stay sober for twenty years and why he set up Sporting Chance, the charity which provides treatment and support for sports stars suffering from addictions. He assesses why Arsenal have struggled to repeat the title-winning formula of his own time there.

Sober is a truly inspirational memoir from someone who has battled with his demons, but has continued to take things on, one day at a time.

Sober Bewertungen

Addicted was like his football style - honest, brave, inspired and unwavering. It gave me the inspiration to deal with my own issues; here was a man openly talking about his problems and embracing life's challenges. Reading it had a huge influence on me and I can't wait to get stuck into Sober, I'm sure it will give many strength, myself included. Bless you Tony. -- Robbie Williams
