Marvin Williams (footballer) - Style of Play

Style of Play

Williams was originally deployed as a striker when he first broke into the Millwall first-team in 2006. However, towards the latter stages of the 2005–06 season he was often used as the second striker alongside Ben May, and would use his quick turn of pace to "cause opposition defences' problems". However, the following campaign, Williams was used as a winger, and this was due to his "direct nature and pace". When Williams signed for Brentford in 2008, manager Andy Scott described Williams as a "quick and direct", as well as saying "he can play wide on the right or up front – he has a lot of potential".

Famous quotes containing the words style of, style and/or play:

    Oh, never mind the fashion. When one has a style of one’s own, it is always twenty times better.
    Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897)

    Style is the dress of thoughts; and let them be ever so just, if your style is homely, coarse, and vulgar, they will appear to as much disadvantage, and be as ill received, as your person, though ever so well-proportioned, would if dressed in rags, dirt, and tatters.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    For sometimes it is shown to me in dreams
    The Eden that all wish to recreate
    Out of their living, from their favourite times;
    The miraculous play where all their dead take part,
    Once more articulate....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
