It had a lovely bit of potential at the start, I guess I just really liked the concept as an Arsenal fan. Its flaws are too many to ignore though. The main character is as stiff as a wooden board, there is zero variation in his personality, he comes across as quite robotic in his responses. Then there's the pacing, every single match so far is written about over about 3 chapters and they all have the exact same energy. Which means literally every match feels the same, the opponents might as well be the same people because there is no real life to them, neither is there any life to the press or even any aspect of the footballing community at large.
Everything in this rather LukeWarm.
