Craig Cathcart

What I admire most about Craig Cathcart is the unglamorous patience of his path. Coming out of Manchester United's academy in Belfast, he could have stalled chasing a dream that wasn't his to take, but instead he grafted through loans in Belgium and the Championship before carving out a real career and earning his Northern Ireland caps. As a 188cm centre-back, he's the kind of dependable defender who rarely makes highlight reels yet quietly holds a backline together. I have a real soft spot for players like this, the ones who build a career on graft, trust and reading the game rather than flash.
