it talks of his relatively poor upbringing north of London and his break in Sweden and his return to Wimbledon and progression in his career when he played for Chelsea and Leeds inter alia. he comes across as a nice guy but i do remember him playing in the 90s and feeling intimidated just watching him on tv. the famous "balls" incident with gazza is explained and the other crazy antics the "crazy gang" used to get up to at Wimbledon is also very very interesting. the back cover of the book i have is hilarious. it shows a snap shot of vinnie challenging ince (then at Liverpool) for the ball. ince is off the ground with his foot on the ball and guess where vinnies foot is, on inces shoulder. hilarious. not as good as some of the other autos i read recently but certifiably worth a read for any footballer. :)
