My Take
Didier Six is the kind of footballer I find irresistibly romantic: a gifted but inconsistent winger who roamed through five countries yet still climbed to the very top with France. He featured at the 1978 and 1982 World Cups and was part of the triumphant Euro 84 squad, proving that flair and fragility can coexist in the same player. That honest description, brilliant on his day and frustrating on others, makes him feel human in a way modern profiles rarely do. He kept the flame burning into management too, leading Guinea until 2021. I love this beautifully unpredictable career.
