Benjamin Siegrist

There is something quietly heroic about a goalkeeper, and Siegrist fits that mould for me. A 1.94 m Swiss keeper from Therwil near Basel who climbed all the way to Serie A is not a story of overnight hype but of patient craft. What I respect most is the willingness to move across borders, from Scotland to Romania to Italy, chasing a starting spot rather than waiting for one. Keepers carry the loneliest job in football, judged by mistakes more than saves. I find that pressure fascinating, and I would happily watch him guard a goal any day.
