A review by elenser
Soccernomics by Simon Kuper, Stefan Szymanski

4.0

Many interesting sections for this relatively stats-heavy look at the soccer world and many of its myths. Some conclusions seemed a bit far-fetched as if the authors had to reach for some shock result that might not have actually be there (i.e. Iraq is the next big soccer nation). All around a worthwhile read, and many of the chapters (which read like individual essays) are definitely 5/5 stars.
