My Take
Frank Stapleton represents the kind of grounded, hard-working footballer I deeply respect. A striker from Dublin who led the line for both Arsenal and Manchester United, he also became a cornerstone of the Republic of Ireland's national side, shouldering the hopes of a country. At 183 cm he was the willing, physical number nine who threw himself into every box. What I find especially admirable is that he did not vanish after retirement; he went on to manage at Bradford City and MLS side New England Revolution, passing his hard-earned knowledge to the next generation. A life given wholly to the game, lived first as a player and then as a teacher, earns a quiet tip of my hat.
