Sol Campbell

Sol Campbell is the kind of defender I deeply respect. Born in East London to Jamaican parents and rising through Tottenham before a 20-year Premier League career and 11 years with England, he embodied the quiet, physical, uncompromising centre-back. At 188 cm he was a wall, and there is something I admire about players who let their durability do the talking rather than chasing headlines. Now passing his knowledge on as a coach, he strikes me as a genuine craftsman of the game.
