Trollope was the problem, though. He tried to get a brand of football that didn't suit the players he had at his disposal. He might be a coach of high regard, but he was a rubbish manager. That sometimes happens.

To try and discredit a more passing style of footballl because of what happened under Trollope is stupid. The style itself wasn't to blame - it was the manager himself.
