My Take
Fernando Morientes is a striker I'll always have a soft spot for. From a tiny village in Cáceres to the spearhead of Real Madrid, he built a career on aerial dominance and unglamorous, selfless graft, the kind of forward who makes a team better without demanding the spotlight. The numbers back it up: 124 La Liga goals in 337 games, plus four Champions League finals between 1998 and 2004, with stops at Monaco, Liverpool and Valencia along the way. I prize players who win matches in the shadow of bigger names, and Morientes is exactly that breed of dependable, big-occasion professional.
