Florin Prunea

Florin Prunea played the loneliest position on the pitch, goalkeeper, and that's exactly why I find him interesting. Strikers get the adoration; the keeper inherits the blame for a single slip. To stand in goal for Romanian football through the turbulent post-Ceausescu years took a particular kind of nerve, and his Sport Merit Order says the country noticed. I have a soft spot for the unglamorous figures who organise the defence and carry pressure quietly. Prunea, at 183 cm and built to command his box, reads to me as one of those steadying presences a team only truly appreciates in his absence.
