The fifteenth anniversary edition, fully revised and updated, of the widely beloved classic on soccer tactics, with fresh insights for fans, captains, and coaches worldwide

Inverting the Pyramid is a pioneering soccer book that chronicles the evolution of soccer tactics and the lives of the itinerant coaching geniuses who have spread their distinctive styles across the globe. In this updated edition of the modern sports-history classic, Jonathan Wilson offers a masterly global history of the world's game, from unruly beginnings to contemporary strategy, and the countless, crucial innovations in between.

Fully revised and updated, this fifteenth-anniversary edition analyses the evolution of modern international football, including the 2022 World Cup, charting the influence of the great Spanish, German and Portuguese tacticians of the last decade, whilst pondering the effects of football's increased globalization and commercialization. Inverting the Pyramid has been called the "Big Daddy" (Zonal Marking) of soccer tactics books; it is essential for any coach, fan, player, or fantasy manager of the beautiful game.
