Stephen Eustaquio is still such a good player.
Honestly, it amazes me that he’s playing in MLS because I genuinely believe he has the quality to play in one of Europe’s top 5 leagues.
Against Bosnia, he looked like the most mature player on the pitch for Canada.
Everything he did felt calculated. Always composed, always making the right decision and constantly helping his team maintain structure in and out of possession.
You can see immediately why he’s the captain.
Such a complete midfield profile. Can progress play through carries, win duels, do the dirty work defensively, dictate tempo and then suddenly produce a line-breaking or final pass when the opportunity presents itself.
Rarely forces actions, understands when to accelerate play and when to slow it down.
The type of midfielder every coach loves because he improves the balance of the entire team.
Genuinely a quality player.
One of Canada’s most important players and still massively underrated in my opinion.
