My Take
Enzo Perez is the embodiment of Argentine midfield grit, all heart and relentless engine. Born in Maipu, Mendoza, in 1986, he had a hugely successful four years at Benfica where he won five trophies including the 2013-14 domestic treble and reached two consecutive Europa League finals. What I'll always remember is his warrior reputation back home, playing through pain when River Plate needed him most, which became the stuff of legend. He's never been the flashiest, but his positional discipline and stamina are elite. He's the kind of player whose value you only fully appreciate when he's missing from the lineup.
