My Take
What I admire about Korey Smith is the quiet durability of his career rather than any flash. Born in Hatfield and brought up through Norwich City, he spent years on loan at Barnsley, Yeovil and Oldham before settling down. Loan life is brutal: you arrive a stranger and have to earn trust from scratch, again and again. The midfielders who survive that grind and keep finding a place to play are, to me, the unsung backbone of English football. I have a soft spot for honest professionals like him who graft far from the spotlight and simply keep showing up.
