Abdelmadjid Nasri

This imposing Algerian center-back is an tireless human wall, remembered in his youth for spending three straight days practicing slide tackles on a sand pitch until the guards finally kicked him off. Despite his quiet reserved nature and lack of aggression toward opponents, his flawless defensive IQ and surprising speed make him nearly unbeatable. He is a physical colossus who prefers to let his impeccable tackling do the talking for him.
