I confess I am not a football expert but I have been a diehard fan and season ticket holder for over ten years. I recommend the following book for the studious Clancy to add to his bedtime reading collection. I am sure it can only help.
The Art of Defense in Chess by Andrew Soltis.
Product Description
Most games are not won -- they are lost. The vast majority of instructional books tell how to improve a position when it is already (or may be) favorable. The Art of Defense in Chess analyzes the practical aspects of not having the advantage:
-- How to obtain counterplay
-- When to contest open lines
-- When to accept sacrifices
-- How to anticipate short- and long-term threats
-- How to restrain your opponent's pieces
-- How to create a defense perimeter
-- How to minimize losses
-- And much more
