My Take
Mathew Ryan earns my respect as a classic grafter. Coming out of Plumpton and the Australian youth system through Blacktown and the Central Coast Mariners, he worked his way up to La Liga and the captaincy of the Socceroos. Goalkeeping is a thankless trade, remembered mainly for mistakes, so the trust placed in him as national captain says a great deal about his temperament and leadership. I admire players who anchor a side from the very back without seeking the spotlight. Ryan strikes me as exactly that sort of dependable, quietly commanding figure, and I rate him highly.
