The Official Professional Footballers' Association Heroes

The PFA Awards, for Players of the Year and Young Player of the Year, were inaugurated in 1974 when Leeds United's Norman Hunter was voted top player by the PFA membership. Since then a host of illustrious players have been honoured, from Colin Todd, Pat Jennings, Andy Gray, Peter Shilton, and Liam Brady to Kenny Dalgleish, Gary Lineker, Mark Hughes, David Platt and Eric Cantona. Young Player of the Year winners include Andy Gray, Glenn Hoddle, Paul Gascoigne and Ryan Giggs. This book provides an overview of the modern game through the eyes of the main participants - the players themselves.
