My Take
I have a soft spot for footballers like Mark McGhee, the kind who understand the game from the inside out. A Glasgow-born Scottish forward, he won the 1983 Cup Winners' Cup and UEFA Super Cup with Aberdeen and roamed through Hamburg, Celtic and Reading. What I admire is the arc that followed: a striker who knew the instinct of scoring then crossed over to teaching others how to do it. There is no glamorous title here, just a man who lived on the pitch and carried that hard-earned feel for the moment straight into management.
