An Arsenal hero, invincible defender and now distinguished pundit, he is an icon of British football.
His story. His words. The inspiring official and first memoir from the football legend and his parting reflections on life, leadership and love.
'As hard-hitting as his tackles' Daily Mail

'[Full of] brilliant stories' Gary Lineker
Over three revolutionary decades, Martin Keown played football at the highest level. He witnessed the birth of the Premier League, the arrival of the millionaire player and was a key player in one of the best sides of all time – Wenger’s Arsenal. So why has he always felt like a man battling on the edge
In this autobiography, Keown recounts how a son of working-class Irish parents, raised in a hostile England during the unrest of the 1970s, rose to be an automatic and enduring pick for club and country; the outsider who stayed the distance while so many insiders fell away.
Over his career, Keown played alongside some of the world’s finest footballers – including Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp, Tony Adams, David Beckham – and under inspirational managers – Arsène Wenger, Kevin Keegan, Sven-Göran Eriksson, Howard Kendall. He was the backbone for many years of the invincible Arsenal team that went on to win the 2003/4 Premier League title without losing a match.
Known as “The Rash” by friend and foe alike for the intensity of his man-marking, Keown always played as if he had more to prove. But his teammates knew he was fast, skilful, tough and loyal, a leader on and off the pitch. Fearless too, as you’ll discover – he doesn’t pull any punches here.
On The Edge is the story of one of Arsenal’s all-time greats – a man whose commitment put him at the centre of the pitch, a place he dominated like almost no other footballer of his generation.
Martin Keown was an outstanding footballer for Arsenal and England, his career spanning more than two decades, from 1984 to 2005.
He was part of a legendary Arsenal team that won three Premier League titles – two of them Doubles – and in the 2003/4 season remained undefeated for an entire League campaign.
Martin is now a highly respected football columnist for Mail Sport, as well as a BAFTA winning TV pundit.
