The shape of him
Arthur Theate is a 26-year-old defender at Eintracht Frankfurt and a Belgium international. In 25/26 that meant 33 club appearances and 2,983 minutes. Defending is anticipation as much as tackling: reading the pass before it is played, holding the line, and starting the attack from the back.
