   Books are great resources to teach coaches and athletic administrators about   
   philosophy, leadership and team building. We regularly speak with athletic   
   administrators who assign books to their coaching staffs, or coaches who   
   require that their captains    
   read about becoming a role model. But what books are best?   
      
   For budding coaches, tacticians, scouts, analysts, and general football   
   lovers, there are few better ways to absorb knowledge about the game than by   
   reading. Alongside the various online resources for footy obsessives, there   
   are tons of amazing books out    
   there dedicated to explaining tactical trends, training set-ups, football   
   history, and so on. That being said, it can be hard to know which ones to   
   read, and which ones to swerve. That's why we've compiled a list of 10 of the   
   best books about football    
   coaching and tactics. Let's get into them.

   There are plenty of books and resources dedicated to the tactical aspect of   
   football coaching, which is obviously hugely important. However, one key   
   element of the profession which is sometimes missed is the importance of   
   building relationships and    
   connecting with athletes on a personal level. A #1 Amazon Best Seller in the   
   UK, Gold Dust focuses on strategies for improving communication and learning   
   how to inspire players to perform to their best ability. David and Keith   
   Mayer's book teaches    
   techniques for optimising performances, improving the environments you coach   
   in, and boosting athletes' mental and emotional health, with contributions   
   from a range of First Team Managers, Head Coaches, Academy Managers and Elite   
   Youth Coaches. You can    
   find the book on Amazon.   
      
   A wide variety of different small-sided football games and drills are taught   
   in this highly focused practical guide. Deliberate Soccer Practice argues that   
   done right, small-sided games represent the epicentre of soccer improvement.   
   The text is aimed at    
   football coaches of all levels, although it has a particular emphasis on youth   
   coaches, who through the use of small-sided games have the opportunity to   
   positively impact the technical and positional development of young players.   
   Providing simple    
   instructions for teaching players tactics, shapes, and awareness, Ray Power's   
   book is a must-have for newbies to football coaching and strategy. It's   
   available via various publishers, including Blackwell's and Abe Books.   
      
   In the last few seasons, the metric of Expected Goals (or xG) has become a   
   common sight for watchers of the game. It can divide opinion, although it's   
   not going anywhere any time soon. For those who are still unsure exactly what   
   xG means and how it can    
   help us understand the game, James Tippett's book is the perfect introduction.   
   The Expected Goals Philosophy provides a basic overview of how xG can be used   
   to review and analyse football. Exploring theories used in gambling and talent   
   identification,    
   the book argues for the importance of this game-changing approach to football   
   analysis. If you're a budding coach or tactician, you'll probably want to gain   
   some solid knowledge on the subject. Check out The Expected Goals Philosophy   
   on World of Books.   
      
   The Athletic writer and podcaster Michael Cox has become one of the most   
   respected names in the game when it comes to tactical analysis and data in   
   football. His book The Mixer: The Story of Premier League Tactics offers a   
   deep dive into the tactical    
   history of the Premier League, looking at how the game has developed over the   
   past quarter of a century. Analysing Ferguson's directness, Keegan's   
   relentless attacking play at Newcastle, and Mourinho's cagey but highly   
   effective Chelsea sides, amongst    
   other teams and styles, this book has been billed as one of the most   
   entertaining, rich, and knowledgeable football books out there. It can be   
   found in a number of places, including Waterstones and GoodReads.   
      
   In the UK and abroad, women's football continues to grow in popularity and   
   quality, having been sidelined for so long. If you're particularly interested   
   in developing a career within the women's game, Jane Haslam's practical guide   
   to coaching and    
   training is a great resource to get you started. Football has become the UK's   
   most important participation sport for women and girls, and Haslam's book   
   seeks to build on these foundations, offering guidance on technical skills,   
   the principles of defence    
   and attack, physical fitness and nutrition, and how coaching environments   
   should be adjusted to suit the needs of female players. It's an impressive   
   publication, and one which lovers of women's and men's football alike will   
   benefit from reading. You can    
   buy a copy on SheKicks or Amazon.   
      
   This best-selling book teaches over 125 drills for beginner, intermediate,   
   advanced, and all-star footballers. Going through all the essentials related   
   to tactics, possession, passing, ball control, and much more, Hargreaves'   
   guide to coaching is an    
   invaluable resource that can be applied in a range of different footballing   
   contexts. Dedicated to preparing players for making intelligent on-field   
   decisions, Skills and Strategies for Coaching Soccer can help football coaches   
   and lovers of the game    
   take their game to the next level. Grab a copy here.   
      
   Aimed at football coaches of all levels and with players of all ages and   
   abilities, The Modern Soccer Coach offers a unique insight into modern   
   football coaching, structured around a four dimensional approach. Gary Curneen   
   is a UEFA A Licensed coach, and    
   his Modern Soccer Coach Podcast has over 2 million listeners, so you can be   
   sure that the tactical, technical, and interpersonal knowledge communicated in   
   this book is coming from a trusted voice. In the text, he explains historical   
   developments within    
   the beautiful game, introduces some dynamic modern training methods, explores   
   what sets coaches like Klopp, Guardiola and Mourinho apart from others, and   
   shares how to develop a competitive and enjoyable coaching environment for   
   players. Check it out on    
   World of Books.
