Reddit mentions of The Anatomy of Liverpool: A History in Ten Matches

An Epic Swindle is the best book on the ownership and direction of Liverpool under our former American owners Hicks & Gilette. An excellent read, and honestly very important in terms of setting the stage for FSG's tenure - elements of the H&G reign are still affecting Liverpool as a club today, and part of what made last season's title challenge so special was that it came less than 4 years after we almost went into administration.

The Anatomy of Liverpool is one I'm reading at the moment. Written by The Guardian's Jonathan Wilson, author of another highly recommended football book called Inverting The Pyramid (a history of football tactics), The Anatomy of Liverpool picks out 10 matches in the club's history and uses them as the basis to discuss that era of the club - the players, the manager, the seasons, the direction of the club, let alone that match itself. Bear in mind that both this book and Inverting The Pyramid can occasionally be very dry reads, but worth persevering with!

And then, of course, LFC players' autobiographies. There's also Pepe Reina's autobiography, in addition to the ones on that list, which also has some insights about the club under Rafa & Hicks & Gilette

LFC.TV also has an official forum where you could ask.
If it's of any help:
Coutinho's been our best player no doubt. Then maybe Sakho, in case he might want a shirt with a name on it.

If he's into reading, a lot of ex players and managers have autobiographies, or books related to their Liverpool tenure. Some of the most prominent ones (in no particular order):

• Rafa Benitez's
  
• Steven Gerrard's
  
• Jamie Carragher's
  
• Kenny Dalglish's
  
• This book by Jonathan Wilson talking about Liverpool, more like a biography about the club. And Wilson is brilliant.
  
  If he watches the games in his own mini bar, or has a room specially for it he might like some assorted memorabilia like this.
  The official LFC com store even has some recommendations depending on age and price range...but i'd still ask around because personally i wouldn't buy many of the articles they suggested haha.
  Hope any of this helps!
