A celebration of the late 1980s and 90s, when Italian football dominated Europe. This book is a must-read for anyone who experienced Italian football through Channel 4's groundbreaking 1990s coverage.

It was an era when ten different Italian teams played in major European finals, when the greatest players strutted their stuff in Italy's stadiums, cheered on by colourful fans with flares and tifos. Inside you'll read about:

• The effect the Heysel disaster had on European football, including Italian football's relative weakness before Heysel

• The turbulent times of Maradona at Napoli, including his and Italy's experiences at Italia '90

• The influx of foreign talent into Italian football, including the Dutch trio as part of Sacchi's Milan revolution and three Germans at Inter

• The dominance of Italian clubs in Europe, including the likes of Sampdoria, Torino, Roma, Fiorentina, Lazio and Parma alongside Napoli, Milan, Inter and Juventus

• The record of English imports into Italy, with a chapter dedicated to Gascoigne's adventure at Lazio and Channel 4 coverage

• Italy's amazing journey through the USA '94 World Cup, including Baggio's ups and downs

• The end of Italian dominance and the fall of several clubs

This evocative book will take those who remember the era on a nostalgic journey through Italian splendour, while those who don't will wish they had been there. It was a time when Italian football was the ultimate in cool.
