Soccernomics: Why Liverpool and John W Henry will not beat the market on transfer deadline day – Telegraph Blogs.

I personally found Soccernomics a bad book. Too much storytelling and not enough analysis. Moneyball is a must read.

Football writing is very variable. This is probably as close good analysis as you’ll get.

Both Newcastle and Liverpool are cities where the club is one of the few things to be proud of.
