My Take

Benjamin Lauth reads to me as the quintessential homegrown German striker. Born in Hausham in Upper Bavaria in 1981, he became inseparable from 1860 Munich, playing two long spells there from 2000 onward, the kind of return that only happens when a club and its supporters truly love a player. Five senior caps for Germany plus a youth international pedigree mark him as a serious forward, even if he never chased the spotlight. At 179 cm he was no towering target man, which makes his goalscoring craft all the more about timing and grit. I'm a sucker for one-club loyalists, and Lauth has that devotion stamped all over his career.
