My Take
Lee Hendrie's story is one I find quietly moving: fourteen years at Aston Villa, the boyhood Birmingham club, in an age when one-team loyalty was already fading. To me that devotion matters more than any trophy haul. A tenacious midfielder with a single full England cap and time at U21 and B level, he gave the Premier League honest graft. I also appreciate that his post-playing career as a Sky Sports pundit is informed by having lived the game's highs and lows firsthand. He's not a marquee star, but the rooted, community-grounded footballer is a type I'll always champion.
