My Take
Ilias Chair is exactly the type of player I love to watch: a small, inventive attacking midfielder who proves the game is not only about size. At 164 cm he creates space and chances at Queens Park Rangers through craft rather than power, and I admire that. Born in Antwerp but choosing to represent Morocco, he carries his heritage with real pride, and the 2022 royal honour shows that meant something beyond football. I have a soft spot for technicians who turn a physical disadvantage into a creative edge, and Chair embodies that spirit. I expect bigger stages ahead for him.
