Mit seinen gerade einmal 25 Jahren schickt sich der Offensiv-Allrounder an, Rekorde für die Ewigkeit aufzustellen und sich einen Ehrenplatz in der Geschichte des deutschen Fußballs zu sichern.

Stuart Pearce became the face of England's bid to win the 1996 European Championships when his maniacal explosion of joy and relief at scoring a penalty in the quarter-final shootout against Spain captured the mood of a nation.

After a decade's exile in Scotland, he sets out to reacquaint himself with England via what he considers its greatest asset: soccer.

The Denmark side of the 1980s was one of the last truly iconic international football teams. Although they did not win a trophy, they claimed something much more important and enduring: glory, and in industrial quantities.
