My Take
What draws me to Wissam Ben Yedder is the quiet persistence of his story: a kid from Sarcelles in the Paris suburbs who climbed from amateur football all the way to becoming Toulouse's greatest league scorer of the century. At 170 cm he is not physically imposing, yet he keeps finding goals at the top level, which tells me his game is built on instinct, timing and sheer ruthlessness in the box. His futsal background shows in that nimble close control. I admire strikers like him far more than flashier names, because their value is earned in consistency rather than headlines.
