Gary Gardner

I have a real fondness for grafters like Gary Gardner. Born in Solihull in 1992, this tall central midfielder came through Aston Villa's academy and made his senior debut on loan at Coventry City, the classic long road of an English pro. Most recently turning out for Cambridge United, he embodies the players who keep chasing the ball away from the bright lights without ever sulking about it. Surviving a career across multiple clubs after coming up through an academy is no small feat. I quietly root for honest, hard-running footballers like him who simply put in the shift.
