Miguel de las Cuevas

What draws me to Miguel de las Cuevas is the quiet endurance of his career. Bursting out of Hercules and then logging 201 La Liga matches across eight seasons with Atletico Madrid, Sporting Gijon, and Osasuna is no small feat in a league as unforgiving as Spain's. He never became a household superstar, but a versatile attacking midfielder who could float across the wings and operate behind the forwards is exactly the kind of clever, adaptable player coaches treasure. I have a soft spot for footballers who grind out a long top-flight career on craft rather than hype, and his eighteen goals carry real weight.
