Jerome Boateng on being a Defender from the Players Tribune:
Quote:
Want to know the best way to figure out what a defender does? First, become a striker. Seriously. At least that’s the method that worked out best for me. Let’s call it a happy accident.
When I was 14, I played on the left wing for a Berlin youth team … Well, right up until our team showed up for a match in Sweden with our entire defensive line out with injuries.
“Okay, Jérôme, you’re playing defense,” my coach said.
