My Take

Yvon Le Roux earns my genuine admiration. A 189 cm defender out of Finistère in Brittany, he won 28 caps for France in the mid-1980s, anchoring the side that lifted Euro 1984 and reached the 1986 World Cup, then helped Marseille to a league-and-cup double in 1989. Behind Platini's dazzling generation, someone had to hold the line, and Le Roux was that man. I picture a player as rugged and unyielding as the Breton coast he came from. The hard, honest centre-back is a dying art, and figures like him remind me why it mattered so much.
