| book description |

'At last, football has its answer to Freakonomics' The Tipping Point and The Undercover Economist. Football truly is the world’s favourite game, followed in over 200 countries by hundreds of millions of people pouring their hearts and souls into supporting their chosen team every week. But behind the passion are questions that all true football aficionados want answered: has football spending spun out of control? How much do managers matter? Is hosting a World Cup a poisoned chalice? Fully revised and updated ahead of the 2026 World Cup, Soccernomics is the revolutionary guide from an economist and a sports writer who answer all these questions and more.
