David Pizarro

David Pizarro is exactly the kind of footballer I root for. A Chilean playmaker from Valparaíso, just 168 cm tall, he thrived in Serie A on intelligence and touch rather than size, comfortable as a holding midfielder, a deep-lying playmaker, or a creator in the hole. In an era obsessed with physicality, players who dominate through reading the game and caressing the ball feel almost defiant, and I treasure them. There is a craftsmanship to a small man controlling tempo against bigger opponents. I imagine the resilience of his port-city roots fed that quiet, unhurried command of the midfield.
