My Take
Laurent Koscielny was a centre back I trusted completely during his Arsenal years, even when the team around him wobbled. Born in Tulle in 1985, he took an unusually patient route through French youth and lower-league football via Guingamp before becoming a Premier League mainstay. I always admired his reading of the game and his aggression in the tackle; he led that back line through some difficult seasons with real heart. Now serving as Lorient's sporting director, he's clearly applying that football intelligence off the pitch. For me he's an underrated defender whose consistency deserved more silverware than he got.
