Tony Adams was a charismatic figure on the football field, a true leader for Arsenal & Engl&.
He won league titles in three separate decades, & after the Gunners moved to their new stadium at the Emirates, it was fitting that a statue of him was erected outside to celebrate his extraordinary career. But, for much of that time, he was also drinking heavily & eventually admitted in his book Addicted that he was an alcoholic.
Now, in that book’s stunning successor Sober, Adams reveals what happened next. He discusses the impact that Arsene Wenger had when he arrived at Arsenal in 1996, & how the manager’s new methods helped extend his career & brought new success to the club.
Always a great thinker on the game, Adams moved into coaching & management on retirement, playing a key role in Portsmouth’s famous FA Cup triumph in 2008, & taking on new challenges in the Netherlands, Azerbaijan, China & now Spain to broaden his perspective.
