Rob Green: Adaptable Allardyce 'can manage flair players'
Former England goalkeeper Rob Green says Sam Allardyce is "adaptable" and has the ability "to manage flair players".
The new England manager has at times been seen as synonymous with 'long ball' football but that's an accusation Green refutes.
Green, who played under Allardyce at West Ham, added: "Go back to his Bolton team with players like Jay-Jay Okocha and Youri Djorkaeff; they played some of the best football people had seen there for many years".
