My Take
Stöger is a complete football lifer, and I love that. Vienna-born, he won four Austrian league titles and three cups as a midfielder split between the city's great rivals, Austria Wien and Rapid Wien, then turned to coaching and even writing columns. Player, manager, and commentator: that is the full circle of the game lived from every angle. The English data file mislabels him as American, but he is unmistakably Austrian. I find the second-act pivot from star player to teacher of the game the most compelling part of his story, and it speaks to a deep love of the sport.
