(There's a reason basketball players don't wear Chuck Taylors anymore!) From the first Air Jordan sneakers to the Nike Air shoes and the latest LeBron products, there has always been a lot of hype around basketball sneaker releases.

The 10 Best Soccer Books Every Player Should Read
I know what you're thinking: "Soccer is about playing, not reading!" Well, you're right in one sense. You can't become a great soccer player without, you know, playing soccer. There is another dimension to the game, however. It's not just about the physicality of kicking the ball or rushing the field. There is a mental element.

There are a number of soccer books every player should read if they want to add this dimension to their own playing.
