Þorsteinn Valdimarsson

After overcoming a horrific allergy to grass that forced him to train in snowstorms, this charismatic Icelander has become an untiring midfield engine whose immense vertical leap compensates for his mediocre technical skills. He is an essential physical force who wins every duel, even though he seems to suffer from a bizarre phobia of heading the ball. His combination of stamina and raw strength makes him a leader who refuses to yield an inch on the pitch.
