Danilo Barbosa

Danilo Barbosa occupies the position I most enjoy watching closely: the defensive midfielder who never makes the highlight reels. From Simões Filho in Bahia he has wandered through European football and now anchors a side in Saudi Arabia, doing the unglamorous work of breaking up play and recycling possession. At 182 cm he has the frame to dominate the middle without drawing the eye. I have always felt these players are the true engine of a team, the ones whose absence you notice far more than their presence. There is a quiet intelligence in reading the game from deep, and I respect it.
