My Take
Walter Benítez is the kind of goalkeeper whose career rewards patience. Born near Buenos Aires, he made his name in France before earning a move to Crystal Palace in the Premier League, and at 191cm he has the frame you want between the posts. What interests me is his late-blooming international recognition with Argentina, sitting behind a crowded keeper depth chart that any nation would envy. Goalkeeping is a brutal, lonely position where one mistake erases ten saves, so the ones who keep climbing have real mental steel. Reaching the top flight in England is no accident, and I'm curious how far his calm style takes him.
