Running Man
At the start of the twenty-first century, John Arne Riise was regarded as one of the most buccaneering left-sided players in European football. During an illustrious career in which he won a Champions League title with Liverpool, he became the finest player Norway has produced in a generation. Yet beneath the veneer of the famous and successful footballer, his ascent masked the huge challenges he had had to overcome on the way to the top: bullying, a broken home, uncertainty, loneliness. The result is an intriguing portrait of a complex man and a candid insight into the life of a modern footballer.
Fordeler og ulemper ved å være John Arne Riise
17 år gammel, og mot alle eksperters råd, reiste John Arne Riise alene ut i verden for å følge drømmen om å bli fotballproff. Det ble starten på Norges kanskje største fotballkarriere, og en historie om å ofre alt, og om å vinne alt – bortsett fra hjertene til det norske folk. John Arne Riise er mobbeofferet som ble tusenvis av smågutters store helt. Ingen norsk fotballspiller har jobbet hardere, spilt med større stjerner eller vært mer omdiskutert. Dette er fortellingen om norgeshistoriens råeste venstrebein, som alltid scoret da presset var som størst. «Fordeler og ulemper med å være John Arne Riise» er et unikt innblikk i en fotballspillers berg- og dalbane av et liv.
Fordeler og ulemper ved å være John Arne Riise
John Arne Riise var bare 17 år da han, mot alle eksperters råd, forlot hjembyen Ålesund og dro ut i verden for å bli fotballproff. Det ble starten på en stor karriere. I denne biografien følger vi Riise gjennom mange år med kamper for noen av verdens største klubber, men også gjennom nedturene, kontroversene og valgene som nesten ødela det hele. Riise er kjent for å ha et av verdens råeste venstrebein, men er også en av landets mest utskjelte menn. Dette er en historie om å ofre alt for klubben, fedrelandet og familien, om å vinne alt - kanskje bortsett fra det norske folks hjerter. Omtalen er utarbeidet av BS.
