Just thinking about our "style" of play under Cabbage Heed and I think it's possibly a follow on from the way the coaches played themselves as players.

More notable ones.

Bruce, defender, ultra defensive.
Rafa, defender, tends towards defensive.
Allardice, defender, no comment.
King Kev, ultra attacker. Virtually all out attack.
Sir Bobby, attacking midfielder. Attack minded.
Chris Hughton, attacking midfielder. Attack minded.
Beardsley(briefly), attacker. Attack minded.

Anyone got any other ideas.
