My Take
Del Horno is the sort of left-back I have a soft spot for: combative, attack-minded, and unafraid of a big move. Seventeen goals from defense across 126 games for Athletic Bilbao tells you everything about his appetite to push forward, and carrying that Basque grit into Chelsea's Premier League title in 2005-06 is no small line on a CV. His Spain-to-England leap took real ambition. I find these unglamorous, hard-running defenders more compelling than the headline scorers, because their contribution is felt rather than counted. Del Horno's career reads as proof that defenders can shape titles too.
