On Saturday 9th October @ 6pm, Claudio will be appearing in Books Etc, located at Fulham Broadway. He will personally sign copies of the book!

A little snippet of the book, one of the most hotly anticipated books of recent times: "It came to my knowledge that while we had been preparing for the [Champions League semi-final, first leg] Monte Carlo match, Chelsea had a meeting with representatives of Mourinho. I had put up with a lot but this was really hard to take. It showed a lack of respect not just for me but for the players and the effort we were putting in. I let myself be affected by anger over the meeting and wanted the win as a way of retaliating. Respect for the opposition, the chance to take advantage of their misfortune and the events of the night before combined to influence my judgement"
