My Take
Glen Johnson is the kind of footballer I genuinely enjoyed watching: an attacking right back who treated the wing as territory to be conquered rather than merely defended. Coming up through West Ham, earning a six million pound move to Chelsea, and helping win the 2004-05 Premier League title and a League Cup shows real competitive grit. Rising from a youth setup to winning silverware at an elite club demands more mental toughness than people credit. Add an England career on top, and you have a player who quietly delivered for years. I have a soft spot for full-backs who make the game more entertaining, and he did.
