Soccernomics (2022 World Cup Edition): Why European Men and American Women Win and Billionaire Owners Are Destined to Lose

I've heard much about the book and felt obliged to read it. Overall, it is half-full. Here are some of my notes:1. Authors mentioned that the first British edition was called "Why Britain loses" or something like that. It's a more accurate name for the book. Indeed, it's mainly about Britain and almost nothing outside Europe.1a. 2022 World Cup edition has no mention of Argentina at all. South American club soccer? Nothing. Messi? None.2. I needed help with structure. Say authors claim European soccer is the best in terms of technique. It's hard to argue. With a couple of anecdotes, do you expect they will develop the argument? Nope. They'd reiterate it with no added information.3. Besides the history of soccer, there's the history of the *book*. Past editions contained different predictions, some of them correct and some of them not; anyway, these developments are only mildly relevant to understanding *soccer*. The book may need a radical rewrite with all the updates merged into a single storyline.All of this is my personal opinion. If you're a Briton without ADHD, you may find it 5 stars!
