My Take
Alan Kelly reads to me like a craftsman of the back line. Born in Preston, England, he chose his roots and earned 34 caps for the Republic of Ireland, a quietly proud decision. As a 188 cm goalkeeper he gave his body to Preston North End, Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers, then passed his expertise on as a goalkeeping coach at Everton. I have a soft spot for players whose value sits at the very back rather than on the scoresheet, and for those who graduate into mentoring. That kind of dependable, teach-the-next-one career earns my genuine respect.
