Gheorghe Mendes

Fuelled by the bitterness of being cut from his youth team because he 'was too stocky,' this powerhouse Frenchman uses his elite speed and bulldozing strength to humiliate wingers. He is an unstoppable force of nature up and down the flank, though his reckless arrogance often leaves him caught out of position due to his inconsistent blocking. With every blistering run, he proves that his brute physicality and cocksure attitude are exactly what modern defending demands.
