adding to the consistency comment, they must be clutch players as well. They must always rise to a challenge. A great player will pick up a team if they are down one way or another.

A great player, hates to loose.

This why a coach will give a certain type of player the Captain's armaband. They're the first person for practice, and they're the last person to leave the game. They complain the least, and go up for the hardest challenges first. And as for the hating to loose part, they are their toughest critic, constantly trying to improve thier game every single day, and always leading by example.

you have 11 players like that - you may not guarantee yourself a win, but you're chances for hanging in till the last whilstle will be there.
