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".
