George Edmundson, The Centre Back Who Bullies Strikers
Edmundson attacks a cross rather than waiting for it to come to him, getting across an opponent early to win the header before an attacker has a chance to jump properly. That physicality sets a tone defensively. Forwards quickly learn there is little joy competing with him in the air throughout a match.
The tension with a defender this physical is pace, since a centre back who relies on strength and aggression can be exposed if asked to defend in open space against a quick attacker running in behind. Middlesbrough tend to play with protection in front of him for exactly that reason. Watch how he copes whenever a game opens up and stops being a straightforward physical contest, especially against forwards who prefer to run in behind rather than compete for crosses in the air.
