Fabinho

Fabinho is the kind of player I respect more the closer I watch. A 188 cm defensive midfielder from Campinas, he rarely grabs headlines, yet his tackling, vision and reading of the game quietly hold a side together. He's versatile enough to drop into central defense, and that selflessness is exactly why attacking players around him get to shine. Captaining Al-Ittihad and earning trust with Brazil tells you coaches value substance over spectacle in him. I'll always have a soft spot for the unglamorous players who do the invisible work, and Fabinho is a textbook example.
