Jimmy Bullard

Jimmy Bullard is my kind of footballer: an East Ham lad who came up the unglamorous way, through West Ham's youth setup and then non-league Gravesend and Northfleet before clawing his way into the professional game. That bottom-up grind builds a grit you cannot coach. What I admire most is his second act, hosting Sky Sports' Soccer AM with the same exuberance he showed on the pitch. A 178 cm midfielder who survives on television through sheer charm and humor has a personality worth its weight, and I find his all-in, clearly-enjoying-life energy genuinely easy to root for.
