As I read his book I came to the conclusion that Gary gets it.'

'A thoughtful and impeccably researched study.' - FourFourTwo Magazine

'It is impossible to begin to understand the complicated tapestry that is soccer in the United States without understanding its history. Gary Hopkins' book provides first-hand insights into that history from those who know because they, like Gary, helped form it. I recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in soccer in the US - its recent past, certainly, but more importantly its present and its future.' - Ivan Gazidis, CEO, Arsenal FC
