Britt Assombalonga

Britt Assombalonga strikes me as the archetypal journeyman striker, and I mean that as a compliment. Born in Kinshasa and forged through the English football leagues, he kept scoring across Watford, Southend, Peterborough, Nottingham Forest, and Middlesbrough. That kind of longevity in front of goal is never an accident; it takes a relentless poacher's instinct. I am drawn to players who carry the weight of representing a nation like the DR Congo while grinding through club moves. His hunger, the willingness to keep finding the net wherever he lands, is exactly the quality I respect most in a center forward.
