I'm Jamie Redknapp.Chances are my surname rings a bell.I want to introduce you to a colourful cast of characters from my formative years. Growing up,Dad and grandad 'Pop' told us tall stories from London's East End,but there was no artistic licence needed when I was actually kicking a ball about with legends like George Best,Bobby Moore,and Geoff Hurst. This is the story of my childhood and adolescence,bit it's also the tale of a journey through an extraordinary obsession with football.One minute I'm reading Shoot! magazine,the next I'm playing for Bournemouth. Not long afterwards,I got my move to Kenny Dalglish's Liverpool.I was living the dream, desperately hoping it was the start of something special. 'Me,family and the Making of a Footballer' has helped me discover so much about myself.This book is my way of explaining who and what have made . . . me. Born in Hampshire in 1973,Jamie Rednapp made his football debut for Bournemouth at the age of 16. He signed for Kenny Dalglish's Liverpool in 1991 and stayed at Anfield until 2002,in the process making more than 300 appearances,scoring in excess of 40 goals, and winning the League Cup in 1995 and both the Charity Shield and UEFA Super Cup in 2001. Rednapp subsequently played for Tottenham Hotspur and Southampton,and won 17 caps for England.He retired in 2005 on medical advice. Jamie is a principal pundit on Sky Sports' football coverage,writes weekly columns for the Daily Mail,and is a team captain on Sky#s two-time BAFTA-winning sports panel show A League of Their Own.
