My Take
I have a soft spot for unglamorous midfield engineers, and Javier Farinós fits the mould perfectly. Two hundred and twenty-five La Liga games across a decade, mostly at his hometown Valencia plus Villarreal and Mallorca, tells me everything: this was a man of consistency rather than fireworks. At 172 cm he was undersized for the position, which means he survived on reading the game and positioning rather than physicality. Players like him are the unsung connective tissue of a side, the ones who let the stars shine. I respect that kind of quiet, durable craftsmanship far more than highlight-reel flash.
