Discussing frankly his rise to football's top table, his struggles with injuries and retirement as well as his feelings about the modern game, A Footballer's Life harks back to a simpler time when fans and players shared the same story, and when the local boy really could dream of scoring a hat-trick for his home club when Saturday came.
