My Take

Simon Colosimo is exactly the kind of player I trust on sight: a Melbourne-born centre-back who could also anchor midfield, the sort of versatility any coach treasures. Spells in the Premier League with Manchester City and in Belgium with Royal Antwerp tell me he had the nerve to leave Australia and test himself in Europe. That Italian surname hints at immigrant roots, and there's something I love about a man carrying that heritage going to fight on the continent. I'll always cheer the dependable utility man over the flashy goal-getter, and Colosimo is that craftsman through and through.

Overview

Simon Colosimo (born 8 January 1979) is an Australian former professional soccer player who played as a centre-back and defensive midfielder. He spent two years playing in Europe with spells in the Premier League with Manchester City and in the Belgian First Division for Royal Antwerp.
