Nacho

Nacho is the kind of footballer I have always admired more than the headline-grabbing stars. A loyal, versatile defender who can slot in at centre-back or either flank, he embodies the quiet professionalism that holds great teams together. At 179 cm he is not physically imposing for a defender, yet his reading of the game and sheer commitment more than compensate. That he is still competing at a high level with Al-Qadsiah in Saudi Arabia speaks to his durability. To me, players like Nacho are the unsung backbone every successful side desperately needs.
