„Fotbal je jednoduchá hra. Dvaadvacet hráčů honí míč 90 minut po hřišti a nakonec vždycky vyhrají Němci.“ To je slavný citát bývalého anglického fotbalisty Garyho Linekera. Nějakou dobu to příliš neplatilo, ale když v závěru finálového zápasu Mistrovství světa 2014 vstřelil útočník Mario Götze gól do sítě argentinského brankáře, zajistil Německu první zlaté medaile po dlouhých čtyřiadvaceti letech. Novinář Raphael Honigstein v knize Restart (Das Reboot) mapuje návrat německého fotbalu z propadliště dějin na konci devadesátých let zpět na vrchol. Zjišťuje, jak se tradičně efektivní, ale nudný a defenzivní fotbal proměnil v atraktivní a útočný, kterého jsme byli svědky v roce 2014. Odpověď hledá od Kalifornie po Stuttgart, od Mnichova po Maracaná, přes Dortmund i Durban. Honigsteinova kniha plná exkluzivních rozhovorů s klíčovými protagonisty prozrazuje tajemství úspěchu německého fotbalu.
âe~Football is a simple game; 22 men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win.âe(tm) Gary Lineker 13 July 2014, World Cup Final, the last 10 minutes of extra time: Germany forward Mario Götze, receiving a floated pass from his international teammate André Schürrle, jumps slightly to meet the ball and cushion it with his chest. Landing on his left foot, he takes a step with his right, swivels, and in one fluid motion, without the ball touching the ground, volleys it past the onrushing Argentine goalkeeper into the far corner of the net. The goal wins Germany the World Cup for the first time in almost thirty years. In the aftermath, Götze looks dazed, unable to comprehend what he has done. In DAS REBOOT, Guardian journalist and television pundit Raphael Honigstein charts the return of German football from the international wilderness of the late nineteen-nineties to Götzeâe(tm)s moment of genius and asks how did this come about? How did German football reinvent itself away from its efficient, but unappealing and defensively-minded past to the free-flowing, attack-minded football that was on display in 2014? The answer takes him from California to Stuttgart, from Munich to the Maracaná, via Dortmund and Amsterdam. Packed with exclusive interviews with the key protagonists, Honigsteinâe(tm)s book lifts the lid on the secrets of German footballâe(tm)s success.

Klopp's pitch-side passion has enthralled fans, leading to 2019's triumphant Champions League win and culminating in 2020 Premier League victory With exclusive access to Klopp's friends, family, colleagues and players, Raphael Honigstein goes behind-the-scenes at Liverpool to tell the definitive story of Klopp's career and how he brought Liverpool to victory.
Jürgen Klopp's coaching career began in the German second tier at the unfashionable club of FSV Mainz 05, whom he steered to the Bundesliga for the first time in forty-one years. In 2008, he joined Borussia Dortmund, where he achieved back-to-back league titles and took the club to the UEFA Champions League final. He left Germany for one of the England's most challenging jobs: to manage Liverpool, a once-mighty club that had not managed sustained success since the 1980s. It was not a task for the fainthearted. Anfield, Liverpool's home, is a temple to flamboyant attacking soccer powered by passion. In Klopp, Liverpool finally found a manager who embodied the essence of the club. Klopp is dynamic, expressive, restless, driven-he feels every move and play, every tactical shift, every contact on the field. His eyes betray a wild ecstasy and agony as his team thrives or falls. His game plan demands relentless commitment-the famous gegenpress-and he is one of the great personal motivators in all sport. Raphael Honigstein, author of Das Reboot and Budesliga correspondent for the Guardian, has interviewed Klopp and followed his career since his early years, and better than anyone knows how to "bring the noise" to his subject.
