John Lundstram

John Lundstram's story interests me precisely because it began with a setback. Coming through Everton's academy in his home city of Liverpool, signing pro forms yet never making a first-team appearance, is the sort of near-miss that ends plenty of careers. Instead he rebuilt himself as a ball-winning defensive midfielder and kept moving, even reaching a loan at Hull from Trabzonspor abroad. At 181 cm he plays the thankless screening role that rarely makes headlines but always matters to a team that wins. I have a soft spot for these self-made grafters who turn rejection into fuel, and Lundstram fits that mould perfectly.
