My Take
Shaun Maloney has one of those biographies that surprises you on the first line, born in Miri, Sarawak, in Malaysia in 1983, yet he became a Scotland international. As a player he turned out for Celtic, Aston Villa, Wigan Athletic, Hull City and Chicago Fire, an attacking midfielder or winger whose game I imagine relied on guile more than size at 171 cm. What I find telling is that he didn't drift away from football after retiring; he moved into coaching and management. That instinct to stay in the game and teach it usually points to someone who reads the sport more deeply than most.
