Playing in Premier League requires certain predispositions – physical and mental, rest is just a matter of training and talent. Young boys have also many examples to follow, having such idols as Gary Pallister, Tony Adams, Sol Campbell or current internationals: Rio Ferdinand and John Terry, there is whom to learn from.
This young boy, born in Woodford in London on the 24th of May 1990, looks like growing up to become a worthy successor of the latter. He joined West Ham’s youth team in 2004, and two years later he signed a professional contract with this team. Now he is mainly playing out on loan in lower league clubs in England, but at the same time he was a captain to every youth national team, in which he has played – with success.
The word “grow” fits Jordan’s description, because he is 181 cm tall in FM, in reality different sources vary from 180 to 191cm, the most reliable giving him 189 cm… Well, maybe J.S. has some measuring-height-phobia and they estimate it at face value. I think it is the matter of the fact that Spence is simply growing like a weed –same as his attributes in FM.
Heading, strength and jumping make him dominating in air. Work rate, good pace and positioning complete the image of a solid defender, and this is just a beginning of his professional career!
When playing with a team from lower English league, you may want to loan him and he would become a rock in the defense line. If you want to have him on your own, you shoud be prepared for a 2.5-3 million € expense, ut it won’t be money down the drain, as Jordan Spence has the makings to become one of the best defenders in the world.
