There seems to have been a lot of fuss made about a book that probably won't be either definitive or groundbreaking.

I get where you’re coming from, but after reading The Rise of the Villains, I was actually surprised by how much it stuck with me. It might not be the definitive take on everything, but it gives a really honest and human look at Unai Emery. It helped me understand the way he works, the challenges he’s faced, and the thought behind his approach—stuff that often gets missed in the usual media coverage. I’ve definitely come away from it as a more patient and appreciative fan.

Don't worry, my next launch won't be twenty quid a time.

Haha fair enough! To be honest, for twenty quid, I got a new perspective on Emery and a bit more patience on matchdays—cheaper than therapy! But hey, if your next launch comes with a discount and some behind-the-scenes drama, I’m in.

What's this word 'discount'?
