What it's about

In 1990 a full-back defended his flank and crossed. A goalkeeper stopped shots. A No. 10 waited between the lines, and a No. 9 waited in the box. Every one of those jobs has since been taken apart and rebuilt, and the shirt numbers stayed the same.

The fourth volume turns from the ideas to the players, and asks every role on the pitch the same question: what did this player do thirty years ago, and what does the job look like now?
