It's not even easy to pigeon hole a team based on skill and a team based on effort and grit.

I like watching players who can produce moments of great skill and ability. I like watching a pacy wide player providing they've got an end product. I don't particularly find endless passing around the half way line entertaining. I get frustrated with some so-called more skillful players that think that's their only role and won't put in a shift to help the team.

I've heard it said that you win the right to be able to show how good you are on the pitch. A team of grafters would (in my opinion) beat a team of skillful players who won't put the hard work in. Without the hard work in providing a platform, skillful players have less chance to show their wares.
