My Take
What I admire most about Teddy Sheringham is longevity paired with intelligence. A 24-year career is staggering, but it is how he played that fascinates me: not a brute target man despite his height, but a thinking second striker who scored with his brain as much as his feet. That 1999 treble with Manchester United, capped by his last-gasp equalizer in the Champions League final, sealed his legend. I have a soft spot for forwards who win through positioning and timing rather than raw power, and Sheringham is the textbook case of the craftsman striker.
