Crab Lungs Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 (edited) We've played attractive, attacking football all-season and with MP's appointment, early indications are that we're continuing in the same vain but with more pressing. Aside from us though, who else plays good football that you enjoy watching? Conversely, what teams are absolute turd. Here's my opinions, FWIW; Arsenal Style: Passing, attractive football. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Fortunate enough to be blessed with both. Physicality: 4/10 Organisation: 6/10 Attractiveness: 8/10 Aston Villa Style: Disorganised hoofball with smatterings of passing. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. And Benteke. Physicality: 5/10 Organisation: 3/10 Attractiveness: 5/10 Chelsea Style: Attacking, over-organised football with players typically confused by Benitez's ****wittery. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 6/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 Everton Style: Attacking, direct physical football. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork with a dash of Fellaini and Baines. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 9/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 Fulham Style: Passing, open football with an emphasis on using wingers. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 6/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 Liverpool Style: Tika-taka or "give it to Suarez". Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork mainly, but there is a tendency to rely heavily on Suarez. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 8/10 Attractiveness: 6/10 Man City Style: Disorganised, throw 11 players together and hope it works. Individual brilliance carries them through most days but if someone with a 1/100 of nous was in Mancini's position, they'd have had the title wrapped up already. Despite the stars they've got, I found them utterly boring to watch. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: No pattern of play, it's almost entirely individual brilliance that sees them through. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 3/10 Attractiveness: 5/10 Man Utd Style: Attacking, pressing football. Can switch from passing to direct comfortably. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork, but have enough good players to change a game. Physicality: 7/10 Organisation: 8/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 QPR Style: "Throw a smorgasbord (no, sorry, family-sized platter) of mercenaries together and hopefully we'll be ok". Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork, but have enough good players to change a game. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 3/10 Attractiveness: 3/10 Reading Style: Irritating, counter-attacking smash 'n' grab with a lot of heart and guts. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 7/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 Stoke City Style: Direct, physical approach in attempt to cower the opposition. That, and wingplay, depending on the team. When they want to keep it tight, they go with 3/4 centrebacks, 3/4 central midfielders in a 4-4-2. Against "lesser sides", fullbacks and wingers are utilised. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 9/10 Organisation: 9/10 Attractiveness: 6/10 Sunderland Style: Mixed style, though have a reliance of Sessengon and Fletcher. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 7/10 Attractiveness: 5/10 Swansea Style: Not so much tika-taka anymore but a balanced, passing approach. Laudrup has made them a far more solid outfit. Less fannying around, more penetrative. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 7/10 Attractiveness: 8/10 Spurs Style: Still can't work them out. Pleased AVB's having a good season but for me he's got a touch of Mancini about him, relying on his talisman(s) to pull the team through. I can't see any real pattern of play. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Gareth Bale, then a good serving of teamwork to go alongside it. Physicality: 6/10 Organisation: 7/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 WBA Style: Mixed, with pressing, defending from the front. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 7/10 Attractiveness: 7/10 WHU Style: A predominantly direct style with smatterings of passing. Jarvis has added an extra dimension/width. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork. Physicality: 8/10 Organisation: 8/10 Attractiveness: 6/10 Wigan Style: There seems to be a long-held myth that they're a great passing team. I'm not totally convinced... more likely a mixed style, depending on the opposition. Team Work or Individual Brilliance: Teamwork.

Olallana Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Good summary, but I dont agree that Reading, West Ham and Stoke would have a higher attractiveness than Swansea. Far from it in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeSixty Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Only team that has really impressed me was West Brom But they have dropped off since. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Far from it in my book. Agree. Reading aren't much more attractive than QPR. and hoof ball Stoke aren't much better either. West Ham can have there moments.

Saint Charlie Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Spurs are the best team to watch IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
110_Persaint Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Spurs are the best team to watch IMO. Second to Chelsea on their day in terms of free-flowing football (the 8-0 villa game was beautiful stuff). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Charlie Posted 10 February, 2013 Share Posted 10 February, 2013 Second to Chelsea on their day in terms of free-flowing football (the 8-0 villa game was beautiful stuff). Prefer Spurs to be honest. Only Mata really excites me for Chelsea. Spurs just go for it all the time and are very open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To each his own then. Spurs rarely win by greater than a two goal margin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
