My Take
Pape Gueye is the kind of midfielder good teams quietly depend on. Born in Montreuil and choosing to play for Senegal, he operates as a defensive midfielder, now at Villarreal in La Liga, the role where you snuff out attacks rather than score. I am drawn to players whose whole job is breaking up the other side's best moves and going unnoticed for it. He has nothing to do with goals, yet a side tightens up when he is on the pitch. Carrying both French and Senegalese roots, that physicality and grit, winning teams always seem to have a man like this.
