Ludovic Giuly

Ludovic Giuly is one of those players who proves that stature is completely irrelevant when you have pace, technique, and the nerve to take on defenders. Standing at 164 cm, this Lyon-born winger spent the best years of his career at the very top — Monaco, then Barcelona, where he was part of the squad that lifted the Champions League in 2006. That Barça side was stacked with legends, so just earning regular minutes there says something real about his quality. He also got 17 caps for France and was part of the 2003 Confederations Cup-winning team, which doesn't get talked about nearly enough. A clever, direct, underrated winger who never got the global headlines his career probably deserved — and after retiring he headed home to Lyon to work toward his coaching licence.
