That was close.
That you were gone at the time.
Yes, so he was one of them sort of few breeds, really, where he's a leader.
Everyone talks now, managers, coaches, looking now for leaders in the field and in the game.
And you see him there tonight, ball comes into the box, he's got his head on everything.
Every single game he's up for, you see him with Wales, he's over 50 caps for Wales now.
And this is a guy who is up for every match he plays and I think he's an incredible player.
Yeah.
He's stayed alive in the box, as you see.
He's very strong, actually, physically.
And in fairness to the centre-half, he sort of got them marshalled well there.
I'm surprised he hasn't scored more goals than he has, whether it's the delivery into the box or not.
But you see in the first one that comes in, he's just short.
He's working his way out.
tries to keep it alive, and instead of maybe going back, he decides to stay in.
It's a great ball into the box, and this is a fantastic header.
It's going away from the goal.
Like I was saying, he wins the battle of the arms, uses his strength to get across, and then heads it back.
And Cara will tell you, he's a centre-half, and actually he's not 6'3", 6'4", you know, he's...
He would maybe be deemed small for a centre-half, but he's got great power and athleticism.
