Zlatan växte upp i RosengÃ¥rd där fotboll snabbt blev en passion som var svÃ¥r att inte tänka pÃ¥ nästan varje sekund. Det var ett sätt att spendera tiden men även ett sätt att vara nÃ¥gon, nÃ¥gon som stod ut i mängden. Tack vare talang och hÃ¥rd arbete tar han sig framgÃ¥ngsrikt upp bland lagen. Men där finns även motgÃ¥ng och kritik, inte bara pÃ¥ grund av hans bakgrund utan för hans tendens att snabbt brusa upp och hans vägran att vara nÃ¥gon annan än han själv. Vi fÃ¥r följa honom genom Ã¥ren där han gÃ¥r framgÃ¥ngsrikt frÃ¥n klubb till klubb men även hans popularitet hos svenska journalister som snabbt ger honom stereotypen som en bad boy. Han möter kritik efter kritik men oavsett vad som händer fortsätter han att framgÃ¥ngsrikt ta sig upp till listan pÃ¥ världens toppspelare medan han envist hÃ¥ller sig sann till sig själv. Jag förstÃ¥r mer och mer varför Zlatan är en nationell hjälte, och jag hÃ¥ller definitivt med. Hans drivkraft är en inspiration, speciellt för barn och unga i liknande arbetarklassförhÃ¥llanden. Men samtidigt... det har fÃ¥tt mig att inse att jag aldrig kommer vilja kolla pÃ¥ herrfotboll igen. Hans ilska och rättfärdighet av toxisk manlighet. Att den är viktig och till och med nödvändig pÃ¥ plan. Boken bekräftar mer eller mindre det faktum att männen spelar ut löjligt mycket pÃ¥ plan och det blir mer om det än bara fotbollen. Jag förstÃ¥r det inte. Zlatan har Ã¥stadkommit mycket och medan jag kan hÃ¥lla med om att han är en inspiration sÃ¥ är det svÃ¥rt att verkligen gilla honom som person. Reading this book you could be forgiven thinking that he is a very self centred big head. There are lots of self references to how brilliant he was in very games and how fantastic his goals were. However, I think it becomes obvious that it is more a case of a deep self belief in his abilitu and he actually says tjese things as a matter of fact, ratjer than a boast. A very enjoyable book which gives a very interesting view of the life of a footballer and his agent sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

I did like it, although I'd hardly consider myself a fan (though his recent stunt to support the World Food Programme certainly made me like him a lot more, as did this). Still, he's one of the most famous people in this country, so of course reading his biography was cool either way.
It's not written by Zlatan, but David Lagercrantz has done a great job in showing Z's voice through-out the book: at first the spoken language annoyed me, but honestly, that was the only way to write it. All the "you know what I mean", and "and do you know what happened next?" and other times where he addresses the reader makes it seems like you're just sitting around listening to Zlatan talk about his life rather than reading a book, and it was nice.
It's also a lot funnier than I expected it to be? Not only because an entire page is dedicated to a small pic of a pug eating pizza (though that is hilarious), but because a lot of the phrasing is just fun to read ("två Kalle Ankor från Aftonbladet" - I can't even translate that). And of course, the first half of the book is 90%: "Then they were upset with me because they thought I had done [Thing]. And sure, I had done [Thing], but still, rude" or "I was called into a meeting and you know how it goes, my first thought was: shit, did I steal a bike again?", which gets funnier the longer it goes on.
Zlatan kinda glosses over a lot of the bad stuff he's done, especially anything regarding physical violence, but he also does own up to it, and never pretends like he didn't fight someone (or steal bikes) or that it wasn't a bad thing, though he often makes it sounds like it's something just happened and not something he did. While I don't exactly love that, I also think that a lot of famous people have gotten away with a LOT worse with way less retribution.
You might enjoy this a little more if you're actually into football, since there's a lot of names and teams and leagues and whatnot that I just can't keep up with (I honestly had to text my brother to help him clarify a part of the book), but I'd still say it's one of the funnier biographies I've read. It gets repetetive, sure, but it's also part of the charm, as are the sidetracks: "When this was going on I was home playing video games. It was either this or that game, I can't remember, but they're both great games. Anyway ...", because it adds to that whole "you're not reading a book you're listening to someone telling you a story feel", and that's probably the book's biggest strenght. ( )
