Nashat Akram

They called Nashat Akram The Maestro, and reading about his vision and long-range passing, I get why playmakers from smaller footballing nations rarely get the global spotlight they deserve. Coming out of Hillah in Iraq and becoming the creative heart of his national team during a turbulent era strikes me as no small thing. At 186 cm he wasn't the typical nimble number ten, yet his game was built on reading the field rather than pure athleticism. I always find those cerebral midfielders the most rewarding to watch, and Akram sounds like exactly that kind of player whose influence outweighed the headlines.
