IAN Holloway won't change his style in the Premier League – his Blackpool side will continue to play all-out attack.His Seasiders took the Championship by surprise with their adventurous 4-3-3 formation.It left them a little open at the back, but they were so potent going forward that they backed themselves to score more than the opposition.
It paid off big-time in the three play-off games as Pool came from behind each time to win.
Holloway said: "Next year we will try to attack the Premier League. I don't want to defend it, that's no good. We'll try to play entertaining football and score goals."I had a year out of football and time to think about what went wrong in my previous job. I was too fearful before in the way I managed and I decided I didn't want the players at my next club to be like that.
"Instead I wanted them to be fearless and to attack. And I wanted to entertain the fans who pay their money to watch. I don't want to bore my way to a 1-0 win. I want to win 5-4 instead. (Blackpool Gazette)
