Humble description of inconspicuous position (10)
I believe the answer is:
lowprofile
'inconspicuous position' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'humble description' is the wordplay.
'humble' becomes 'low' (similar in meaning).
'description' becomes 'profile' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'low'+'profile'='LOWPROFILE'
'of' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
