Christine Payne

This lightning-quick Aussie wingback dominates the flank with unmatched stamina and defensive mastery, though her absolute refusal to head the ball makes her a liability on set pieces. Before every kickoff, she meticulously arranges her shin guards into a perfect pyramid inside the locker room, a bizarre ritual her teammates mock with rolls of their eyes. Her unshakeable cockiness ensures she is always the loudest voice on the pitch, even when her lack of physicality leaves her easily bullied in a shoulder charge.
