Grzegorz Krychowiak

There's a craftsman's quality to Grzegorz Krychowiak that I really value. Born in Gryfice in Poland's West Pomerania, he broke through at Bordeaux, moved on via Reims, and then won the Europa League twice with Sevilla. Standing 186 cm and playing as a defensive midfielder, he was the quintessential water-carrier, doing the unglamorous work that never shows up in the highlight reels. Those are exactly the players I admire most. His well-traveled career, plus years anchoring Poland's midfield, speaks to a real toughness of character. To me he's the kind of dependable presence the game should remember fondly.
