Emmanuel Eboué

Emmanuel Eboue's career sums up a particular kind of grit for me. Born in Abidjan and developed at ASEC Mimosas, he made the leap to Belgium with Beveren before landing at Arsenal, where he spent his best years as a right back and played in the 2006 Champions League Final. Over 200 appearances in the Premier League is no fluke. I always thought of him as a player who gave everything and wore his emotions openly, which made crowds either adore him or test his nerve. That blend of energy and vulnerability is what I remember most about watching him play.
