Ben Blake is a genius right winger. He is really popular at United because he can always read exactly what his team mates are going to do on the pitch. But he has a secret he has managed to hide from his teachers, his mum, everyone. He can?t read. When you are part of a football team you need to read letters and fill in forms, read team sheets. Ben has to try harder and harder to hide his secret ? too ashamed to just ask for help. And that starts to put his place in the United team at risk.
