My Take
Jerdy Schouten is exactly the kind of footballer I gravitate toward: the quiet engine rather than the headline-grabber. A tall, intelligent midfielder anchoring PSV and the Dutch national team, he does the unglamorous work that rarely shows up in highlight reels but always shows up in results. I respect how steadily he climbed, embodying that Capricorn patience, until the cap eventually came. Players like him are undervalued precisely because their contribution resists easy measurement. My honest sense is that his reputation still lags behind his actual influence, and I suspect the wider footballing world will catch up to what coaches already know.
