Most important/valued position in football (soccer to our american cousins)

[RozzySean]

im sorry but i think your all wrong... All the top teams have that holding midfielder who protecs the back 4 and breaks the play up... He is some times called the water carrier, and plays such as Hargreaves, Essien, Mascarano etc all preform this job for there club sides... Roy Keane and Patrik Viera were two of the best examples in recent years, just look how important they were...

I love this position (it was my favorite to play) and it's a great asset to have a great one, but I think it's easier to make up for a weakness in this position than it is to cover for a bad keeper or lack of a good attacking midfielder or forward.

Center Mid....they have the opportunity to touch the ball the most and have an effect on attack and defense.

PROOF
Can Liverpool win without Reina?
Can Liverpool win without Torres?
Can Liverpool win without Gerrard?
