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 a spell in Saudi Arabia and is now back in Brazil with Grêmio, doing the unglamorous work of breaking up play and recycling possession. At 183 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.
