My Take
Cody Gakpo is a joy to watch. At 193 cm he has the frame of a target man but the touch of a winger, comfortable cutting in from the left or leading the line. A PSV academy product who broke through to Liverpool and the Dutch national team, he carries himself with a humility that shows in how he points skyward after scoring. His breakout 2021-22 season, 21 goals and Dutch Footballer of the Year, announced real quality. What I like is the temperament: unhurried, never greedy, yet ruthless in the box. He wins you over with sincerity more than spectacle, and I genuinely expect him to keep climbing.
