The shape of him
Richie Laryea is a 31-year-old defender at Toronto FC and a Canada international. In 26/27 that meant 32 club appearances and 2,595 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.
