by David Seaman (Author)
David Seaman has been at the centre of the most successful Arsenal side of the postwar period. He has also made the England goalkeeper's position his own with a succession of superb games as both player and captain, not least with heroic performances at the focus point of the high-tension penalty shootouts that have dogged England's progress in recent international competitions. Awarded the MBE for services to Association Football, David Seaman is a true sportsman with a spotless record and a reputation as one the game's most thoughtful characters. Safe Hands is a celebration of one of the most successful and high-profile careers in the domestic game, the story of one of the best-loved people in sport.
