Ever wondered what it's like to be a Premier League footballer? No current player is better placed to tell you than James Milner, who burst onto the Premier League scene as a 16-year-old at his hometown club, Leeds United, in 2002 and has been playing on English football's biggest stages ever since. In Ask A Footballer, he answers fans' questions on every aspect of an elite footballer's life: from how top teams prepare mentally, physically and tactically to how the dressing-room atmosphere and matchday routines have changed. He has played under managers as diverse as Terry Venables, Sir Bobby Robson, Martin O'Neill, Fabio Capello, Roberto Mancini and Jürgen Klopp. Milner sheds light on everything from half-time team-talks to penalty-taking techniques and lining up against opponents as varied as Lionel Messi and Jimmy Bullard. He shares the difficulty in handling some spirit-crushing lows as well as the exhilarating high of Champions League glory with Liverpool. James also reveals a footballer's lifestyle away from the pitch - it's not all bling and glamour. Or ironing and Ribena, for that matter ... Book jacket.
