Abakar Ayissi

This powerful Cameroonian central defender dominates the box with surgical slide tackles and a brute strength that overpowers any opponent, although he is certainly not an aerial specialist. For good luck, he always sits in the last seat of the bus to whisper tactical secrets to a piece of chewing gum before sticking it under the seat, leaving his teammates both amused and baffled. His charismatic presence on the pitch is pure electricity.
