Tim Edward introduces football through the relationship between individual skills and the tactical decisions made during a match. Basic techniques are explained alongside different positions, systems of play and the choices that help a team work effectively together. Photographs of players and illustrated sequences connect the discussion with recognisable situations on the pitch, from handling the ball to responding to an opponent. A foreword by Harry Redknapp places the guide within an experienced football perspective. Soccer: Skills and Tactics is designed for readers who want to understand more than isolated tricks, encouraging them to consider how practice, positioning and cooperation contribute to performance at different levels of the game.
