My Take

Espasandín won me over quietly. Born in 1985 in Santa Comba, Galicia, he plays left back, the unglamorous backbone position that keeps an organised team from falling apart. But the detail that truly earns my respect is geography: a Spaniard who travelled all the way to a club in New Zealand, building a life on the far side of the planet amid a different language and climate. Choosing the right place to play over chasing the spotlight strikes me as genuinely classy. I have a soft spot for footballers who roam the world like this; understated globe-trotters are, to me, the real adventurers of the game.

Overview
