#14 Jose Enrique – El Toro (The Bull)
Trending
‘El Toro’ or ‘The Bull’ was Jose Enrique’s nickname during his spell at Newcastle United, when fans named him that due to his sheer strength and the defensive work that he did.
One of the hallmarks of Enrique’s game was his ability to shield the ball when he was pressed in dangerous areas of the pitch. After spending four years at Newcastle, Enrique left to join Liverpool in 2011. He was an instant hit as he delivered some fabulous performances.
But soon, his form waned and Brendan Rodgers tried him as a left winger, but bad form coupled with persistent injuries ensured that his career never really took off at Liverpool, at least not in the way that it was touted to.
Enrique played a few FA Cup games under Jurgen Klopp in the 2015/16 season, but he was released by the club in the summer of 2016.
Enrique currently plays for Real Zaragoza in the Spanish Segunda Division.
