My Take
Gabriel Agbonlahor strikes me as a study in loyalty. Born in Erdington, Birmingham in 1986, he gave his entire professional career to Aston Villa, with only brief loan spells at Watford and Sheffield Wednesday as a teenager. In an era when players chase transfers across leagues, committing a whole career to one club is genuinely moving. A quick 180 cm forward carrying the pride of his hometown club season after season is the sort of story I find stirring. The phrase local hero gets used loosely, but for a one-club striker who ran his heart out for the badge, it fits perfectly.
