My Take
I have a soft spot for midfielders like Alejandro Bedoya, the kind who do the unglamorous running that lets a team function. Born in New Jersey to Colombian roots and educated at Boston College, he reads as a thoughtful, grounded professional rather than a highlight machine. The detail that tells me the most is that the Philadelphia Union made him their captain. Armbands are handed to players teammates trust, not just ones fans adore. In an era obsessed with goals and viral moments, I respect a player whose value shows up in the connective tissue of a match more than the scoresheet.
