Finnan's player profile

Irishman Steve Finnan has become an indispensable member of Benitez's squad. Although he has been fighting for the right back since he joined the Red Army, he has defended his main position with his outstanding performance from Josemi to Kroenkamp and then to Arbeloa. Steady defense and sharp assists are the magic weapon for him to stay in the main position.

Finn was born in limerick, but when he was very young, his family immigrated to England, where he started his football career.
