Book description
Ian Rush is one of the greatest goal scorers of all time. This will be
his full and long-awaited autobiography and as such its publication this
autumn will be a key event in sports publishing. In it 'Rushie', one of
Liverpool's most revered and long-standing players, reveals in depth the
trials and triumphs of his career, playing under such great Liverpool
managers as Shankly, Paisley, Fagan, Dalglish and Evans; and his
thoughts and feelings about fellow players John Barnes, Jamie Redknapp
and Robbie Fowler. Aside from Liverpool, Rush takes a frank look at his
time playing for home country Wales, where he is the record goal scorer.
It will also deal with his views on the game and where it is heading, as
well as his own future after playing in the FA Cup Final when he leaves
Liverpool at the end of the 1996 season.
