Jan the Man by Jan Molby

It's a long way from the dizzy heights of the Premiership to the depths, or thereabouts, of Division Three. Once one of Anfield's finest passers of a ball, Jan Molby, the Dane with a Liverpudlian accent stronger than the Mersey ferrymaster, was been forced to make this journey in order to accept the challenge of player-management, at Swansea. The local boy made good, Jan Molby left Denmark to learn at the feet of the Dutch master Johann Cruyff before becoming Merseyside's most famous adopted son. In twelve years at Anfield he experienced the Double on the field and trouble off it - spending six weeks in prison for reckless driving. This fascinating autobiography reveals for the first time the inside story of his spell behind bars; it offers a view from the Anfield dressing room of Dalglish's sudden departure, and gives the inside track on how Swansea almost achieved promotion at the first attempt, and Molby's own controversial sacking a season later.
