      Halfway through it now on page 114. I just bought it 4 hours ago. What a great read, a lot of pictures of him which allow you to have a good look at his cute face! ;D

      I want to meet him but I'm so far away :(

      Seriously though, it's a enjoyable read.

      Page 129 and I haven't come across any foul words yet. Doesn't seem like he's written it but I prefer an autobiography without foul words.

      Finished now.

      The only ones I came across were probably only 'Bloody hell' and 'Ballsy'. Light-weight.

      Anyway, it's a very enjoyable read, pity he doesn't have any trophies he has won with Liverpool to share, I do bloody well hope he writes another autobiography in the future, this time with more stunning goals, and more trophies to savour.

      Well in Nando lad, what a book.

      I'm reading it too at the moment, but I'm trying to make it last as opposed to finishing it all in one go. I love reading about what he thinks of other players, like Stevie and Carra, and how much he admires King Kenny. One thing that pleased me was how he admires one club players, like Stevie, Giggs and Carra. Made me think that he's perfectly content here even when the richest clubs in the world come calling.

      I really hope he wins a trophy this season, he deserves it as do the rest of the team, I'd love to see him lift the FA Cup or the Europa Cup this year.

      Yeah.

      Slightly confusing book by the way in which he jumps from LFC to Atletico, from one game to another.

      But still nonetheless a must-read it offers a great inside to his life.

      Aye, the chapters are a bit non-chronological. Nevertheless, a great read, and I'm only on pg. 139.

      He doesn't have a bad house, either.

      Wish players would leave these till the end of their careers, I remember reading Fowlers book, and then he signed for us again, thats a whole chapter that could have been written and would have been a good read. Similar to Torres, would be fascinating to read about the 3 leagues and 2 champions leagues he is going to win at Liverpool :D
