Don't know if anyone else has seen much of them this season but I've found them very entertaining and consider their style of play to be no different to any other succesful side- they do knock some direct passes through Campo (no different to what Lampard, Gerrard, Beckham and anyone else who knows how to pass a ball does) and their midfield play through the likes of Okocha and Nakata is at time breathtaking.
They don't knock long balls into the channels like some teams seem to, and they don't simply rely on picking out the head of their tallest player (like Everton). Stelios and Diouf are exciting wide players who run at defenders and the signing of Borgetti can only make them even stronger. Their full backs generally attack and pass the ball and I have to say the only time I ever see a ball pumped long is when Molineux favourite Nikki Hunt is playing.
Why all the question marks over their style?
