| book description |

The most exciting footballing prodigy to emerge in this country in decades, and now one of the brightest stars in world football, Michael Owen demonstrates in his own words how to become the complete striker in his very own soccer skills book. After scoring that goal against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup, Owen has forever cemented his place in his country's affections. But how did he come to put the ball in the net and what were the particular skills required to score a goal that Pele himself would have been proud of? With the help of Michael Owen's Soccer Skills now you can find out how to mould yourself into the complete goalscorer. Beginning with a potted history of his career and progression through Lilleshall and England Youth and Under-18 teams, Michael goes on to demonstrate how a balanced diet and a thorough warm-up routine are essential in the build-up to a match. There follows a series of 20 skills routines designed to improve key areas of your game, including: Dribbling / Heading / Ball control / Penalty taking / Shooting for goal / Beating your man Fully illustrated with over 300 exclusive colour action photographs of Owen in action on the training ground and supplemented with computer-drawn graphics showing how a top striker perfects his art, this book is a must for all budding goalscorers who are keen to find the net on a regular basis.
