In many books, he was described as a more agile player, two-footed, good with pace & acceleration, solid in dribbling. perhaps we can update this stats a little bit.

You're two-footed, have pace and don't mind getting stuck in

Roy Bentley under way in one of his characteristic dribble sets every true footballer in the crowd - Chelsea supporter or not - on the side of the one against the many, of the gesture against utility... It is a heady thing to watch, this loose dribble of his almost toppling with speed, in that sudden half-pitch-length burst; the swerve or turn is no more than a flicker in his headlong rush.

Seemingly possessing a spring in his boots he was a brilliant header of the ball, climbing above taller opponents, hovering, before directing the ball past the goalkeeper.
Speed and acceleration were other assets and preceded many of his goals, scored venomously from either foot
Maybe with those SP and HA, he doesn't need SA 86 to score 20-23 goals per season (including penalty)
