Publisher's summary

“OUR IDENTITY IS INTENSITY,” declares Liverpool FC assistant-manager Pep Lijnders in this compelling account of the 2021/22 season, and from the very first chapter he takes us on a footballing thrill-ride we will never forget.

Liverpool's blistering brand of football has revived a sleeping giant, energised its vast army of fans, entertained crowds at home and all over the world, and redefined coaching excellence.

Now Pep tells the inside story of a season which, even by LFC standards, has been truly sensational. Week by week as the drama unfolds it's all here: from pre-season to unforgettable finale; great goals and gruelling schedules; passionate team-talks and personal reflections; unsung heroes and Kop idols; the pride and the passion, the joy and the heartache… and the fun.

In his own engaging and inspiring style, Pep takes listeners behind-the-scenes at Anfield, the AXA Training Centre and the team hotel; on the pitch, in the dugout and back in the dressing-room away from the media glare.

In forming a ‘one-club' mentality, Jürgen Klopp, Lijnders and co have also created countless modern memories for the LFC family, and this unique book chronicles their legacy.

Soccer, behind the scenes

As a loyal Liverpool fan, I learned how hard the staff and team works in great detail. The narator put everything in his reading, simply fantastic.

excellent background info

I absolutely loved hearing the behind the scenes to one of my favorite seasons in recent memory.

My one criticism is the narrator. He didn't even attempt to properly pronounce names of people involved. At one point they recorded the google translator audio of Genk lol. Vinicius Jr as Vinickus. Etc. They could have at least done a check for pronunciations.

Our Identity is Intensity

The approach to this book is unique and gives brilliant insight into leadership, human management, desire and giving your all to add value to your work and family. Even more amazing if you are a LFC or just a neutral football supporter.
