Attack / Defence Awareness Card: BalancedINFOS:Martin O'Neill was tireless midfielder, who mostly played on the side, but also was used as central midfielder. He spent ten years at Nottingham Forest and is a true Forest legend. He was a part of club's most successful generation and a very important member of the team. He played in both ways, and he was running all game long. Although skinny, he was tough in physical duels and always played with lot of energy. He possessed good technical skills, he was better at dribbling than trapping the ball, he could deliver good passes both short and long. He often played first touch passes, and his most famous characteristic was playing with the outside of the boot, using it for passes and shooting all the time. He was combative player, always focused on the game, but when in goal chance, it seemed like that he lost his focus and then shot the ball poorly. He played for Northern Irish NT for 13 years and he was captain of their side at 1982 World Cup where they reached second round.
