SHOOT Squad: Millwall’s best XI

CM: Ben Thompson

Ben Thompson has secured his spot as Millwall’s first-choice midfielder following a string of combative and tough-tackling displays over the last year.

For a guy of small stature, Thompson’s presence on the field is larger than life. He makes things tick and does one of the most important things possible in SE16 – gets the crowd going.

This time last season, the number eight was a relative unknown. Now, the majority of Lions fans wouldn’t be without him.
